Separate school board sponsors .teacher
The Huron -Perth County
Roman Catholic Separate School
Board will sponsor up to 30
teachers to the family Life course
at St. Jerome's College,
Waterloo, in the summer of 1977
at a maximum cost of $3600.00.
The tuition -fee for each teacher is
$120, which the board will pay but
each teacher must assume any
travel or boarding costs,
Before each teacher takes the
course he or she must be ap-
proved by the board.
Trustee Michael Connolly said,
"Paying $120 per course we want
to be sure the teacher will con-
tinue with our system. The
taxpayers are paying."
Mr. Connolly expressed his
concern that all schools should
have teachers taking the course,
and that some schools should not
have a bigger percentage than
others.
The board members decided at
the meeting in Dublin Tuesday
night that they want a cheque
disbursement summary mailed
to them with the agenda when
available, and time will be set
aside at the following board
meeting for trustees to direct
questions, if any, to the finance
committee for elaboration.
The clergy -board liaison
committee will meet April 14 or
21, or as soon as a meeting can be
set up with the clergy, to discuss
the problem of the spring break
period in 1978 being the same
time as Holy Week. On the
committee representing the
board will be Mickey Vere, board
chairman, Michael Connolly and
Donald Crowley.
If the committee recommends
that the spring break week be
changed to another week, and the
board approves, then the board
will make a submission to the
Ministry of Education for final
approval of a modified school
year calendar for Huron -Perth
area.
Phase 213, Focus on Faith, will
be held November 20 at a location
not yet determined in Huron or
Perth. Bishop Emmett Carter of
London has agreed tentatively to
attend. This meeting will be
attended by trustees and their
spouses, principals and their
spouses and parents representing
each school in Huron and Perth
counties.
John Vintar, Director of
Education, reported that five
applications have been received
for the two French teaching
positions to be started on the first
of September with the teaching of
French to be started in Grades 7
in the schools. Interviews will be
held as soon as a committee can
be set up.
Mr. Vintar and Superintendent
Joseph Mills will attend a
meeting in Toronto at the
Ministry of Education where the
Hon. Thomas L. Wells will be
explaining the program toimprove
and expand the teaching of
French as a second language
throughout Ontario and if there is
any plan to implement additional
financial assistance to the board
for this program..
Superintendent William Mills
said that each of the 19 separate
schools in Huron and Perth will
be holding special programs to
