Zurich Citizens News, 1975-10-23, Page 21Goderich wants crossing guards A request for immediate action was sent to the Huron - Perth separate school board by St. Mary's school in God- erich. The request was present- ed to the Board at their meeting, held last Monday night, October 27, in Dublin.

The board agreed to send a request immediately. St. Mary's school further requested that the board ask the Town of Goderich to cons- ider installing side -walks along Bennett Street from St. Mary's School to Huron Road; that there be an ext- ension of side -walks on Bay- field Road to the intersect- ion of Bennett Street; and that traffic light be installed at the intersection of Bayfield Road and Bennett Streets. The board agreed to write a letter to the Goderich Town Council asking if council has ,given any consid- eration to these points. St. Joseph's School in Stratford also requested that the board inform the Strat- ford Traffic Commission of its concern for the safety of the children and request the provision of a sidewalk along the West side of St. Vincent Street from West Gore Street to Patricia Road. The Stratford area World Aid committee requested that the separate school board allow posters to be hung in their schools advertising a roll-a-thon to raise money for the town of Pablito in Costa Rica. John Vintar, director of education said he felt this was a worthwile project and "I would recommend this motion be passed." The board approved the advertising and posting of posters in their schools. In further business a motion was moved by John 0'- Drowsky and seconded by Vince Young for the board to consider hiring a part-time, at least half-time, family life co-ordinator. After much discussion as to whether this program would run into confl- ict with religion classes, it was agreed that the two programs, Religion and Fam- ily Life should be kept separ- ate as they are two separ- ate and distinct programs. The motion was passed. The board agreed to rent one of their portable class- rooms to a public school in Listowel from January 1, 1976 to June 30, 1976, for the sum of $1,000. plus the cost of moving the portable and relocating it.
