If teachers at South litlron District Secondary school want to get,. organized for the 197049 • school year they will have to do it • some other time thanthe first day, . of school. , The -Huron County board of Hducation Monday approved the , 1978.79• school • calendars Monday 'making only' one change from • the calendars submitted by school principals, denial of a request from SHDHS to use the first day of School as.a professional development day. 'Herb Jurkheim; trustee 'from • Zturich, "told the board he was opposed .to the use of school opening day as PD day,, He said 'the teachers at South Huron asked for two development 'days in September and that one of them was the first 'day of school. He said the teacherS wanted the daytto organize timetables and classes and to iron out any curriculum problems. • Mr, Turkheim, 'told the board that he felt the use of opening day for those purposes was unnecessary. 'suggesting that teachers get together sometime before September 4, .the first day of school. He said the teachers' contact was from September 1 and if they wanted to meet in the schools they could do so on one of the three days prior the first day of schoOl. "We're getting a lot-of flack in. the south, end of the county over this," he said.

The director said that practice was both '`.eustomary, and necessary". He said three PP days vvere„ 'planned for the secondary school teachers by administration and the remaining two days were left,_ at the 'discretion of the school,'Ile said South Huron took one of those days at' the, beginning of the year and felt it was justified. Colborne Trtistee Shirley Hazlitt said she was inclined to agree with 'Mr, Turkheim claiming the teachers should be ready to teach when school started. She said opening day was normally used to settle students 'problems over books, timetables and scheduling and was not an instructional day. She said the second day war an instructional day but that South Huron would not be teaching the second day of 'school because of the PD day. Mr. Cochrane told the board that for teachers to use one of the three days prior to opening 'day would require them to use the Labor Day weekend. He said the teachers contract began September 1 but pointed out that teachers only get paid 'for the days school is open and that they wOuldWt be paid-for using one of- the days on the weekend. "This is not the year to be suggesting that teachers be in school early." warned the direCtor. • • Goderich Trustee Dorothy Wallace said she couldn't under- stand how the matter got •to the board. She said the board was a policy maker and this matter fell' under the (Niles of ad mihistro lion, She said she felt it was something the principals Should be doing themselves. "If administration doesn't do what the board 'wants..-it to do maybe it's time to tell it what to do,"said Mr. Turkheim. The board approved an amended motion giving teachers , at South Huron any other day than opening day for professional development.
