The lack of an arts program at St. Marys
DCVI is being studied by the Perth Board of
Education. An increasing number of students
are now attending Stratford schools cutting
enrolment at St. Marys.
The problem started in 1981 after the boys'
basic level program at DCVI was terminated
because of a low number of students. The
basic level students from St. Marys were
transferred to Stratford.
Academic students then requested to
attend Stratford schools for such subjects as
art, music, theatre arts and German.
In the 1981-82 school year five students
requested such a transfer and in 1982:83 the
number rose to 21. For the coming year it was
estimated that between 34 and 46 students
would be leaving St. Marys to attend school in
Stratford.
Adam Stecher, superintendent of schools,
said that number has been reduced to 24 to 28
students. Of these 11 are grade nine
students, three are grade ten students and
the rest are scattered in the remaining
grades.
Trustee Peter Black said part of the reason
for the decline in the figure is because
parents have become aware of the board
study and are waiting to see the outcome.
While the lack of an arts program has
resulted in a Toss of enrolment at DCVI, the
school now taces another problem. As of

September 1984, stUdents entering grade
nine must obtain at least one credit in an arts
program - art, music or theatre arts - in order
to receive a secondary school graduation
diploma.
Mr. Stecher said the program credits have
to be in place by December to enable students
to register for September of 1983.
The study to be undertaken by the
superintendent of schools and DCVI principal
Eldon Alderson will include consideration of:
-Arts courses being introduced into the
school;
-the feasibility of returning the boys' basic
level program to DCVI;
-The effect of present bussing practices on
the school programs.
"We intend to involve the public," said
Mr. Stecher. There is a group of parents in St.
Marys ,who are pursuing the problem, he
said.
Mr. Black asked if any consideration would
be given to realigning thebussing boundaries
between St. Marys and Mitchell. The
superintendent of schools said that would be
taken into consideration.
Stratford trustee Paul Parlee asked if
students are withdrawn, if the effect on the
programs offered in Stratford secondary
schools would be considered.
"We are conscious of that concern," Mr.
Stecher said.
