It was pointed out that total money for capital costs in Huron's secondary schools is heavily committed for debenture debt, leaving only a small amount recoverable by grants for new equipment, Suggestion was made that if former secondary school boards in Huron County had been cont- ent with original plans to confine technical teaching to the secon- dary schools in Clinton and Wingham, debenture debt could have been kept in line with grant: leaving additional money free for new equipment expenditures.

Another factor in this year's budget is the item amounting to $237, 453 representing arbitrat• ion surpluses. This sum will be divided up between certain municipalities in Huron who came into the county school system with surpluses in 1969.

The personnel and salary neg- otiating committee was given authority to negotiate and fin- alize the salary settlement with the custodian's committee, subject to the final approval of the board. The custodian's com- mittee is comprised of Harry Hak, Seaforth; Lee Regier, Zurich; and Mrs. Gwen O'Rourke, St, Col- umban. Mr. Vintar outlined the need for additional special education teachers for the two counties to assist pupils with learning disab- ilities. Because of the distance between schools and sparsity of population, Mr. Vintar reported it appears desirable to employ itinerant remedial teachers who can assist pupils in several schools. To date there are 285 cases who have been examined and others are currently being tested. The present staff includes one special education consultant, one remedial special class teach- er and one itinerant remedial teacher. by board members discussing the inequities of the system but no conclusions were reached.
