(Photo by Sharon Dietz) Bill 82 fine-tunes educational opportunities BY: JOAN VAN DEN BROECK TRUSTEE, HURON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION There is a determination today, more solidly in place and attainable than ever before to educate each and every child to his/her potential.... to make every bird a winner. The concept is exciting. Is it possi- ble that, within the next generation, we as a society could make such a quantum leap in social development'? Will we live to see the realization of such a marvellous promise'. A few important developments in the past few years indicate that there is a determination to see the achievement of this dream. Bill '82 and the individuality of programs fur children will fine-tune the delivery of educational opportunities for all children. The revised secondary curriculum, initiated in 1984, will complement the process at the secondary level. Fortunately, today's teachers are highly -skilled professionals, quite capable of meeting this demanding mandate. In time, I believe the complexion of our schools will change to reflect a new image. A spirit of co-operation will eventually replace competitiveness as the common denominator. Every child will he challenged to reach out and grow. There will be no more winners and losers.... only winners. It is happening already. Jet me give you a couple of examples of how we will perceive the enormity of the change. In Exeter, a class of developmentally handicapped adolescents has been established at South Huron Secondary School. Initial concerns that they would be taunted have proven un- founded. On the contrary, senior students have volunteered to work as peer tutors and assist with the program. Modest subject in- tegration is also proving successful. We are discovering our humanity and each group is benefiting in the process. In each secondary school, programs are being developed at appropriate levels for all students. There are three levels of difficulty in most subject areas. The advanced level courses are designed to challenge motivated students and to prepare them for success at post -secondary education ( university 1 should they wish to go on. I might add, Huron County graduates do very well and are able to meet the rigorous demands of Ontario's universities. General level courses are geared to prepare students for community college, ap- prenticeship and the workforce. Current high unemployment levels impact most significantly on this group. A pilot cooperative education program has been in- itiated to enhance employment skills and help senior students discover interest areas before making career choices. Basic level programs assist students with learning difficulties that would hamper suc- cess in the other programs. As skill levels improve, some of these students upgrade their course level. Many students per- sonalize their course selections at all levels depending on interest and ability. A special education resource person in each secon- dary school assists students with specific learning disabilities in each level of study. Our children are our most precious resource. As a society, we cannot afford to short-change one of them. The cost of their education is our investment and, if for no other reason than our own personal self- interest. we must secure their future. Unless we are able to develop a highly - skilled employable work force, encourage potential entrepreneurs and nurture citizen- ship in all our youth, the social programs we enjoy and our high standard of living will be in jeopardy. It all starts with the basics - a sound education. Our schools are rising to meet the challenge. KIRKEY CAR CARE 80 Victoria Street South GODERICH.
