Discussion& were held with 20 parents and 20 students (not as one group) to get their views on the subject. The students were from Grades 7 and 8. Mr. Eckert said 20 was a small number to interview but there was not enough staff to do more. The need for the study in the province was suggested to school boards by the ministry of education. Mr. Eckert said he believed the time was well spent in doing the study, and provided a common philosophy throughout, the system. "It's good at this time to ensure it is a common sense approach", Mr. Eckert said. USE Post WANT ADS Phone 887-6641
