schools around the area will be
heading off to a brand new
school. Not only the desks,
classrooms and teachers will be
new; so will the curriculum,
giving education a Christian
emphasis.
The Iucknow and District
Christian School will be the
newest of some 70 schools in this
province operating under the
Ontario Alliance of Christian
Schools. These schools are not
affiliated with any particular
religious denomination; they are
controlled locally by parents
rather than by a church or the
government and so far they are
funded entirely by private
donations. : . ,
The Christian schools feature
more than just Bible study and
prayer, Ralph Schuurman,
I .
to view everything from a
Christian perspective.
"If we were just concerned
with Bible study it could be done
much cheaper elsewhere."
He said the schoois draw most
of their teachers from Christian
colleges. Th&e who come from
secular institutions are required
to take supplementary courses in
Christian education, he added,
quoting a saying: `A teacher who
is a good Christian is not
necessarily a good, Christian
teacher'.
The fact the schools are in-
dependent has also meant they
get no support at all from the
Ontario government. It views
everything from a political
perspective—how many votes
will be won or lost—and not from
the point of view of right or
wrong, Mr. Schuurman com-

always been 'no'.
He pointed out the schools
aren't asking for any free gifts
from the government. These
parents pay school taxes the
same as everyone else and they
ask only that the taxes they pay
should help pay for their
children's education.
"Why should our taxes go to a
school system we don't use?" he
asked.
"We don't say the public school
system is a bad system; it's
great. It's just not good enough
for us. We want a Christian
perspective."
He noted Ontario is one of the
few provinces refusing to provide
funding for Christian schools. In
the Maritimes or Quebec it's no
problem for a parent's taxes to go
to the school system of his or her
choice, he said, while Manitoba
gives a grant to Christian •chooL
in lieu of separating out the
taxes.
The rsfusal to provide any
public funding means that
parents in Ontario who choose to
send their children to one of the
Christian schools must pay twice
for their education. The cost
varies from school to w hoot, Mr.
Schuurman said, noting the
Clinton school, which brings
students from as far &Wd as
Exeter, Seafaeth sad Blyth, hhs
transportation bills of >iM,000 per
year while a school in London has
none.
Clinton needs about $2,000 per
family to operate, he said, but
noted that some families pay
more while others pay less. In
addition some of the money
comes through donations from
sympathizers who don't have any
children in col.
"We a kids first, then
talk fine " he explained, and
no famil is forced to pay more
than it cafford.
Harry %a, chairman of
the board for the new L.ucltnow
school, emphasised the school is
not affiliated with any church
and is open to anyone sharing the
belief expressed in its con-
stitution that the Bible Is the
word of God as inspired by God.
Some people have tended to
associate the school with the
Dutch Reformed Churqb but it is
entirely nondenominational.
Other members of the board
include Jenny Newman, Cor
Mulder, Bill Welima and Ruth
Geertama.
Mr. Bergsma reported a
society to work toward Christian
education was formed in 1982;
finally, last year, it was able to
begin actual planning of the
building, which is scheduled for
completion in time for the
beginning of the 1119"i school
year.
The new school will have four
rooms to accommodate the eight
elementary grades. Its con-
struction is expected to cost
about ;180,000 of which abolut
$100,000 has been raised already.
