School holidays discussed by board
CLII TON - The number of school days
and when school holidays will fall were
discussed during the Huron County Board of
Education meeting on April 7, and in accor-
dance with the Ministry of Education's
policy, there will be a minimum of 194
school days.
Of the 194 school days, a minimum of 185
must be designated as teaching days, leav-
ing a maximum of nine days as professional
development days. For secondary schools,
15 days may be designated as examination
days.
School holidays for the upcoming year
(1986-87) will be:
Christmas Break - December 22 - January 2
Mid -Winter Break - March 16 - 20
Tony McQuail asked the board if it was
possible to plan . professional development
days.so,they fall on days when there is an ac-
tivity of education aide schetltded. Direc-
tor of Education Bob Allan said there is
"quite a bit of lobbying"' by organizers to
have this done.
`.`We are told it can 'make or break an
event," he said. However, he added that not
'everyone can be accommodated.

Name Change
The Board has eliminated the public use.
of three school names for the trainable
retarded. They are Golden Circle, Huron
Hope and Queen Elizabeth. They have also
eliminated the use of the term trainable
retarded in association with these schools:
"The term trainable retarded will be
replaced with pupils of the school," explain-
ed Mr. Allan. However, he did say the three
school names will have to be used when con-
ducting official business.
The recommendation to make the
changes came from the Special Education
Advisory Committee.

tional teacher. in the elementary school
system. for the upcoming year. They are
also anticipating' an additional 23 students

and seven teachers for five students.
"The student -teacher ratio for secondary
schools is not as high (in Huron County) as it
is for our neighbors, therefore we are trying
to reach that ratio," said Mr. Allan who also
explained this type of hiring was part of an
agreement made last year.
