Members of the Huron County
Board of Education learned Wed-
nesday evening in Clinton at the
final meeting of the year that
tenders for the purchase of 12
school buses were received from
four school bus suppliers for three
buses to go to Turnberry and nine
to Howick,
The lowest tender was made by
Wayne Bus Sales of Ontario for
$106, 525 less $6, 000 trade-in,
making a difference of $100, 525.
and was accepted by the board,
Delivery is to be made prior
to December 31 and will include
nine Ford and three GM Chassis
all with Wayne bodies,
Other tenders ranged from the
low Wayne bid to $106, 234.
The report and recommendatior,
on the cafeteria study was pres-
ented to the board and approved.
The report showed that a meeting
had been held with all the cafet-
eria operators in the county high
schools and discussion had centred
around reducing or even eliminat-
ing Board financial assistance,
Cafeteria operators agreed that
a "tuck shop" at any cafeteria
increased the financial return. As
well, an "express line" was shown
to have merit. Cost of meals
and staff wages were the biggest
problems, the cafeteria operators
said,
Only two of the operators felt
they would be willing to operate
their schobl cafeterias without
subsidization from the board, The
other operators noted that the
only way it could be done suc-
cessfully was to raise the cost of
meals to at least 55 cents,
Following the meeting, the
committee set forth the following
suggested recommendations;
Raise the cost of a hot plate
to 40 cents at GDCI; have bulk
milk and use milk dispensers at
GDCI; incorporate an express
line at GDCI; cafeteria and not
the GDCI Student Council to dis-
pense ice cream; cafeterias to be
self-supporting at CHSS and SH -
DHS; cease operation of Moffat
Catering Ltd. at Central Huron
Secondary School as soon as pos-
sible and engage a local super-
visor to run operation without
board subsidy.
These suggestions will be put
into effect January 1, 1971, and
CHRISTMAS EDITION, 1970
will run until the end of the
school term at which time the
financial statement of each caf-
eteria's operation will be review-
ed.
