Home My WebLink AboutThe Goderich Signal-Star, 1982-05-26, Page 13Board approves plan by Stephanie Levesgpe DU$LIN — Huron -Perth Separate School Board approved its special education plan at a special meeting . The plan has to be approved bty the Ministry of Education and on hand for the meeting was Roger Miller, liaison officer with the Ministry's regional office in London. To be reviewed annually, the plan covers the years 1-9Wtss>l' ig d .:�«;ze t—alaz : ai education. In De --comber of 1980, the provincial government approved amendments to the Education Act, known as 1311 182. The amendments required each school board in the province toprovide an education for all students, whether or not they are exceptional. The board's plan, after date was collected and reviewed by its special education committee, recommends the hiring of two speech and language correction teachers for September of 1982, possibly two self-contained classroom teachers for September of 1983 and for the same year, a half-time teacher for gifted students and a half-time psychometrist. Accommodation is a major issue addressed by the plan. For 1982, It recommends one resource classroom for St. Patrick's School in Dublin, St. James School in Seaforth and Sacred Heart School in Wingham. In 1983; a self-contained classroom may be needed at either Precious Blood in Exeter or St. Boniface in Zurich and a resource classroom at Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Mount Carmel. In further accommodation recommendations, the plan suggests the board's property committee con- sider possible alterations to schools to enable physically disabled students entrance. The board currently has three self-contained special education classes, with one teacher in each, serving a total of 19 students. By 1985, this is expected to reach 27 students served by five staff members. In its resource withdrawal' program, the board serves 250 students with 8.8 teaching positions pressatttss tad thisi . e etc te- Inereasts.tt " students with 11.8 teaching positions in 1985. Added to these teaching positions Is the equivalent of one full- time teacher for remedial and home -instruction programs. That figure is expected to remain at one to 1985. Since the inception of Bill 82, all school boards will „be required to educate its trainable mentally retarded pupils, The Huron -Perth board does not have a school presently operating and a'committee of surrounding boards will be established to work out a plan. Superintendent of education John McCauley pointed out the document is not iron clad and it could be changed when it is reviewed annually.' Chairman John O'Leary commended .ad- ministration and the special education committee for its work on the document. "I don't think when Bill 82 was introduced. boards realized what was involved. I am sure the pupils^ of Huron and Perth will benefit from this document," said Chairman O'Leary. Make boating a safe experience The first signs of summer are' all around us: youngsters in shorts, trees flourishing and bulbs bloom- ing. The boating enthusiast' is thinking in terms of the first trip or the first 'day's fishing and the Ontario Pro- vincial Police have several ideas to make boating safer. Police officers look at many things with a different viewpoint. Boating is no dif• - ferent- The start of the season means another crop - of -fatal; and usually pr -every --- table accidents on the water. Whether it's canoeing on raging white waters; sailing on the Great Lakes or water skiing, there is an ever- present element of danger or risk. A person in a boat feels secure, but if that person falls in the water, he or she is fighting an uncertain, uncon- trollable environment. Boaters are notoriously confident of their ability to stay in their craft. But acci- dent ccident statistics do not support that view. Wearing a life jacket or personal flotation device is an elementary precaution, but how many adults -automatically wear -a - life jacket unless they were in a life-threatening situa-, tion? It's like wearing seat belts in a car. Life jackets are plain and simple insurance to improve your chances of survival. Unless you are in the mid- dle of a blizzard or hur- ricane, weather does not make a lot of . difference when you are driving a car. With boating it's always im- portant to know what weather to expect. Most recreational boaters are fair weather sailors. Squalls can..spring up_ unexs pettedly and they are sud- denly faced with conditions which are totally unfamiliar Bankruptcies will increase in 1982 Ontario had the highest number of farm bankrupt- cies in Canada in 1981, and the outlook for 1982 isn't en- couraging. For these reasons, economic issues dominated the OFA's brief to the provincial cabinet. The brief said farmers are "disappointed" in the On- tario Farm Adjustment Assistance Program because they "feel the pro- gram's inadequacies outweigh any possible benefits." The brief said the program "is in desperate need of revamping," and said its structure was the major "hindrance". "The case committees are acting as judges, whereas they should be playing sup- portive roles. This was our understanding about the role of the ag. reps and the case committees." the OFA said in the brief. The brief said "it makes absolutely no sense to guarantee a new line of credit to a producer without making the new loan eligible for interest subsidy." It also suggested that the program allow consolidated debts to be eligible for interest assistance. The brief suggested that the Farm Productivity In- centive Program be replac- ed by a better program, since it "has become inade- quate in relation to present capital costs and ... is destin- ed to become less cost effi- cient. OFA suggested that it be replaced by a low interest loan program. Loans of up to $50,000 each could be made, at a fixed rate of eight per- cent, repayable over 10 years. The improvement would Owners advised vised to stop°using heaters Owners of Solary heating pads manufactured prior to 1976 are advised to stop using them immediately due to a potential fire hazard, says the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and the manufacturer. Studies have revealed that the insulating material used prior to 1976 can break down through regular use, resulting in a fire hazard. The insulating material was changed in 1976 and (SA has received no reports of similar failures with the new improved insulation. Older models were ink - stamped in English only, while the improved units are stamped in English and French. If you have one of the older type heating pads, discard it.

', • The brief also suggested the government "take inven- tory" of the many programs it administrates, since "some of them have likely outlived their original pur- pose." -The brief refers to them as "small change . programs, whose cost of administration might well exceed the funds it puts out." The OFA is willing to help the government review these programs, the brief said. a BAILEY Real Estate Ltd.

By finding out what the weather and water condi- tions are going to be, youcan change your plans and in- crease your chances of sur- vival. Often the police will learn of a missing boater, but have no idea where the person went. If you go fishing or take a weekend trip, let so- meone know your route and tell them when you get home safely. It's like an airline pilot filing a flight plan. If something does go wrong, search- parties know where to goy Boating is one of the most rewarding pastimes, but there is an element of danger which can be modified with good sense and awareness of what can go wrong. If you know your own abilities with a boat, you will be a sur- vivor. Barrie expresses concern "You have given us a truly miserable reflection off your much -touted concern for agriculture," Ralph Barrie, president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture tell _ ,n.e-zLtp members: o` parllarrlAnt and senators recently. They were attending a meeting organized by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. The CFA delegation was made up of directors from the CFA board and senior officials from most of Canada's farm organizations and' co- operatives. Barrie said the only solu- tion to current farm finan- cial problems is "massive refinancing of the . farm debt." "That refinancing must take place at rates that are commensurate with returns in agriculture," he said. One way of refinancing which the OFA and CFA have sug- gested is giving the Farm Credit Corporation the right to sell agri-bonds. The FCC could borrow money from private sources, and give the lender agri-bonds in return. Farmer could borrow money at 10 percent, and lenders ' could get a substantial tax break. "It could have, and should have been done ages ago," Barrie said. He said it should have been done when the Farm Credit Act was being amended. "Damn it, it's about time they (government leaders) started doing -something sen- sible. We need help now. Even now is too late for many. Failure to get positive action is bound .to cause farmers in ugly moods to ral- ly into this city and let the „government know we mean business." Barrie concluded by sav- ing, "If you really stand by the platitudes we hear you utter all too often, do something right for a change, and do it now."
