A meeting of the school board members and administration with the local, news media on April 5 was cited as a good way for the board to give them art opportunity to ask questions. The members of the press were shown through the ad- ministrative centre at that time, Mrs, J. W. Wallace criticized the lack of guidance from the ministry, John Broadfoot queationed the amount of local history and the different levels of government taught to the students. J. P.

Kenwell, superintendent, reported enrolment is expected to be down about 228 pupils in Huron, from 7760 to 7523, He said the average class size is expected to be 29.25 for the next term, compared to 30.18 this term. Kindergarten class size is 28 children limit for a teacher, Mr. Henderson asked if the right thing was being done by not limiting class size for grades 1, and 3 to the same number as kindergarten. Mr. Cochrane said that all would agree that it would be good, but would add teachers. Mr. Kenwell made a rough, guess that it would require about ten more teachers which would add $100,090 to costs. Mr. Cochrane said that teachers will be hired to the limit of the proposal presented at the meeting but that after the budget is completed, and funds are available, then hire more. The board considered a report made by Chairman E. Cayley Hill and D. J. Cochrane, Director of Education, following a visit by them last fall to most of the schools in Huron, They listed ten broad categories that they felt required further study at that time. Detailed reports on these categories were presented verbally at the meeting Monday by Superintendents W. D. Ken- well, Ralph Smith, Robert Allen and ,L W. Coulter. These reports are to be presented in written form for the board members at another meeting as it was felt that it would be fairer to them to make a decision as to whether to accept or reject the reports which were quite lengthy. They were 1. Class Size- Teacher-Pupil ratio, 2. the need for senior opportunity classes at the elementary school level; 3. the need for even more con- centration in the field of special education; 4. curriculum development; 5, budgetary matters; 6, professional development; 7. organization, evaluation and accountability; 8. programs and facilities; 9. personnel; 10. the public image of education. A few highlights from these reports: Mr. Allen said the major request was for keeping children in their own classrooms with the remedial teachers assisting the individual student rather than putting children in opportunity classes. He said the regular classroom teachers have now become better qualified in the last few years in dealing with these students. Mr. Kenwell reported that Dr. Miller of the Goderich Psychiatric Hospital has volunteered to go into any or all the schools to talk with a pupil, teacher or principal. He will give about 20 hours per week if needed: Mr. Coulter outlined how the curriculum is developed. He said the ministry of education gives a descriptive course of study — guidelines only — and it is up to the local staff to work out details for the teachers to follow.
