The Wingham Advance-Times, 1989-05-09, Page 27Central Duron SS gets top priority for funding e a zat on of Central Huron Secondary School has been given top priority by the Huron County Board of Education. At its regular May meeting, the board reviewed a list of capital pro- jects according to funding feasibili- ty and urgency, and the CHSS pro- ject was placed at the head of that priority list. Where possible, cost cuts were made to keep within the $500,000 allocated by the Ontario Ministry of Education. HCBE Education Director Bob Allan referred to the CHSS revital- ization project as a priority item that "could not be tampered with". Initial discussions concerning the proposed project began taking shape in 1986. Planning continued through 1987 and 1988 as it became clear that the Huron -Perth Roman Catholic Separate School Board did not require space for a Catholic sec- ondary school. The school site is now ready_for major renovation and the recom- mended cost is $100,000. The cost for paving and drainage improvement work at Walton Pub- lic School, Huron Centennial Public School, Exeter Public School, Madill student& gains recognition in poster contest Two F. E. Madill Secondary School students have been recog- nized recently, both for doing extremely well in Legion -sponsored activities. Cindy Newton, a Grade 9 stu- dent at the high school and the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mike Newton of Wroxeter, will have her prize-winning Remembrance Day poster entered in the Dominion competition. Don Farnell, president of Branch 180 of the Royal Canadian Legion, Wingham, reports that Cindy's poster was first in the intermediate division at the branch, zone, district and Ontario command finals. The poster now is in the Canada - wide competition. Margaret Jarvis, a Grade 10 stu- dent at Madill, also has done very well in recent public speaking com- petitions. The topic for her speech was "Cystic Fibrosis". After winning first prize in the junior secondary category at the Legion contest on Feb. 18, Margaret advanced to the zone contest held March 4 at Clinton. She also was the winner there. She won in her division at the district contest held April 2 in Guelph and was second at the area competition last month at Thorn- hill. The area competition is one level below provincial. Margaret is the daughter of Frank and Mary Stretton of Brus- sels.

This has been reduced from the previous estimate of $100,000. The board has decided to estab- lish an annual cycle of repairs and maintenance, and HCBE adminis- tration feels $50,000 annually over a five-year period will have a pro- found impact. Priorities for this year include Huron Centennial, a portion of Robertson Memorial and minimal engineering work at Seaforth Pub- lic. The board has set aside $10,000 for the purchase of a classroom set of dedicated word processors for Central Huron Secondary School. The reduced amount identifies that the balance of the $30,000 cost will be required from the regular dapital expenditure amount approved in the base budget. The board also approved an administration recommendatiain to )urchase $40,000 worth of addition - stand -alone computers for use in elementary classrooms. Administration also suggested that ongoing renovations at the board's education centre in Clinton should be extended over a longer period of time. The board agreed that $1,000 will be applied to third -year floor and ceiling replacement, and long range general refurbishing; and $3,000 will purchase software and IBM .linkage for desktop publishing. ,It was also agreed to reduce the allocation for the employee assis- tance plan from $7,000 to $5,000. A total of $47,000 has been allo- cated for textbook purchases, trans- portation, and other inflationary items, and $10,000 has been set aside for music equipment repairs and maintenance. Other allocations include: $20,000 for science lab renovation at Goderich District Collegiate Insti- tute; $25,000 for renovations at Vanastra; $65,000 for window con- versions at Seaforth District High School; $30,000 for initial renova- tion to the arts program at South Huron District Secondary School in Exeter; $16,000 for the purchase of a maintenance van; $65,000 for tech- nological studies program renova- tions at RE. Madill, Central Huron, South Huron and Seaforth District Secondary Schools. Carrie Fortune works at turnberry By Carrie Fortune The co-operative education pro- gram at the F. E. Madill Secondary School has allowed me to gain hands-on experience in my future career — teaching. It also has allowed me to look at the teaching profession from a per- spective other than that of a stu- dent. I have been assisting Bill Chaulk with the Grade 5-6 class at Turnber- ry Central School. I have a variety of tasks there, ranging from mark- ing daily assignments to planning English and science lessons or help- ing with math. The most satisfying task I have, though, is helping the students one- on-one. I enjoy seeing a student improve after receiving some extra help. I would like to thank the staff and students, especially Grade 5-6, at Turnberry Central for their sup- port and acceptance. Because of them, I look forward to a career in teacltirtg. • Heinz 455 ml.
