It followed a special meeting held on June 3 at- were, t- tended by�five delegates who were,protesting the board's decision at the end of May to relocate 20 teachers, par- ticularly the transferof some popular teachers, to different schools across the system. These transfers are to be effective when the new school term starts in September. The delegates at that meeting appeared to be satisfied with the explana- - tion that each teacher was t• ransferred ' only a short distance when the board was faced with having too many teachers in Huron County and too few in Perth schools, a situation requiring some • juggling However, board chairman Ronald Murray of Dublin lad°assuredthem as the meeting closed if they wanted a public meeting he would call one if requested. Alice of Mitchell • led 'off the questioning by asking the hoard's policy on • hiring .non-Catholic teachers. She referred to the Waterloo separate !,'School board that hired only Catholic teachers: � `� Pe wa.'a'told • Murray that there were 16 - i • non-Catholic teachers in the system with the last one hired_ about four years ago. He. said an attempt was made always to fill' the va- :.cant positlodWith a Catholic teacher where possible: • Mrs. Lou** asked if so-. • teen • attended a regular meeting of the board would there be a question period when vlsitors'could ask quer - ;tions. She was told` by Mr. Murray that there was none, as it would disrupt the delegatiOnitWitkpe.r- Mission to "speak` bn a specific subject are given the opportunity 'to address the boar"dduringmeetings. Mrs. Louwagie questioned the value of'LL attending •an open board meeting if a per- son could not speak. Mr. Murray advised that the route to go forinformation on an education problem was to ask, the principal of the school, or the trustee for the area or bring it to the board as a final resource. - Louis (Biff) Looby asked chairman Murray why "with the two best teachers we have had, you let them go?" Mr. Looby also asked why Mr. Murray did not vote on the transfer and was told that as a chairman he does not vote but has on occasion stepped out of the chair to vote. Mr. Looby attacked the chairman (who represents McKillop Township, with many Dublin area students) repeatedly for not voting when the transfers affected "your district". Shouting matches broke out each time. Mr. Murray admitted he had not voted. Mr. Looby asked "Why did they not move someone else? I'd keep the two best teachers" and Mr. Murray told Mr. Looby, "You don't tell me what I want!" Mr.. Looby declared several times, "This board is known as a family com- pact." (He has not been available since the meeting to ask him what he meant by this statement.) Mr. Murray pointed out that on the average, each teacher is moved every six or seven years in the system. He was asked why the non- Catholic teachers were not move first and he replied that, "We treat every teacher as fair as we can, they are treated the same." William Eckert, Director of Education, explained how the transfers were decided at Dublin – that four teachers were interviewed and asked if any two would go to Kinkora,-none wanted to go, and the two at Dublin the longest were moved. Mr. Looby criticized the Dublin moves being made at the deadline, the last night before deadline, but he was told the trustees knew the a. 4 co 4 Tura to page 7A 6 S a. 1 4 4 WEblINSPAY. JUNE 2 .
