(Photo by Joanne Buchanan) Separate board will assist County in event of disaster "This must be some kind of a record," said board chairman Ronald Murray of Dublin when the Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board meeting adjourned Monday night. The trustees had been in session only one hour and 20 minutes and a half hour of that was spent in committee of the whole. "There must be a game (on television)," said one trustee as they picked up their papers and headed for home. During the session, the board agreed that if an emergency evacuation of Bruce County ever took place, the Huron -Perth School board would give temporary housing for Bruce students and residents in its schools. The request came from Mary Hobley, project co-ordinator and D. Verrips, director, for the Bruce County Social Services. The letter stated the social services department has been preparing an evacuation plan for the County in the event a disaster should occur. In other business, the board appointed three trustees; Gerald Groothuis of Seaforth, Michael Moriarty of Bayfield and John Devlin of Stratford, to sit as members of the co-operative action committee. This committee will be appointed annually and will meet with a similar committee of four teachers to discuss matters of mutual concern. The board hopes the meetings will result in mutual benefit to trustees, teachers and parents and contribute to the common good of the school system. The board received a report on summer school held at St. Patrick's School in Dublin for learning handicapped children. This year, the school included a pilot project of instruction for 160 gifted pupils. William Eckert, director of education, said this was the first time the board has offered a summer program for the gifted. He expected it would be continued another year. "I think both these groups can benefit from the program and the experiences that are provided for them in summer school," Mr. Eckert said, "And I feel it's important for gifted children to work with other gifted children and interact with them. "If they understand other gifted children, they can cope better with their own giftedness," he said.
