(photo by Dave Sykes) Separate bd happy with policy The Huron -Perth - County Roman Catholic Separate School board voted against reducing the number of trustees permitted to attend conferences outside of Ontario, but in Canada, at a board session Monday night. The amendment to the board policy was defeated when Trustee. Ronald Marcy of Stratford, on the Policy and By-law committee, presented a number of changes to. various policies when up -dating them. The proposal to cut the number of trustees flying to various con- s ferences outside, the province was made because of the cost factor. At present, three trustees and one ad- ministrator are allowed to attend at board ex- pense and the committee. proposed that a limit be set at two trustees and one administrator. • -. The board set thepolicy that attendance at a conference outside of Canada by either' a trustee or an/ ad- ministrator must first receive board approval. Director of'Education, William Eckert, objected to having to get board approval before he could allow' a member of the teaching staff or ad- ministration to attend a -• conference outside of Canada, because he has control of that budget. He' said, "I feel that I should be judge of that." . The trustees' honorarium was in- creased to $180 per month from $162. The allowance for the board chairman was increased to $240 from $216, both retroactive to January 1, 1979. Six trustees will journey to British Columbia in June to' conferences.
