Although negotiations between
Huron's 360 elementary school
teachers and the .Huron. County
Board of Education haven't been
successful yet,- both, sides say
they arc hopeful for a settlement
from a meeting that will take
place Wednesday, after press,
time.
Head negotiator for the
teachers, Graham :Yeats, a
teacher at Blyth Public School
said "we have moved our position
since the fact finder's report and
the board has moved theirs. I
hope we , can come to an
agreentent."
A fact finder1s report on the
board - teacher impasse which
was released :Friday his • quite
sympathetic to the board's
position.
•The board offered an 8 per
cent pay increase plus a 1 .7 per
.cent cost of living allowance,
which they say. is equal, in.,
percentage ternis to the offer that
Huron secondary teachers have
already accepted. The elementary
teachers consider that settlement
inadequa te._
Fact finder Ian Hunter of
Toronto says in his report that the
teachers' position is
"understandable but:.,':, unrea-
• listic."
The students of Brussels Public
School had a most successful
UNICEF UNICEF drive. A total of $137.47
\vas collected. The school' would
like to thank everyone who
contributed to this very worthy
The town was divided into'

Other 'items still -not , settled,
according to the report, is the
.$4000 allowance for principals in
schools for the mentally retarded,
which the teachers want
increased to keep up with
inflationand an increase in
maximum cumulative sick days
from 200 to 240.
• The board's position is that
responsibilities 'of the principals
in schools for the retarded have
decreased since the schools have
been integrated into the regular
public schools.
SeafOrth trustee Molly Kunder,
who is on the board's negotiating
committee, says the board' has
never been hard on _any teache'r
.who genuinebi needed more sick
days but that it prefers a policy on
this, rather than negotiating the
number of days in revery contract.
Mrs.-Kunder agreed that many
boards allow more cumulative
sick days ...some up to 400. "But
. what's it 'going to be like several "
years from now?".
Representatives of both sides
said there is little likelihood of a
strike: Mrs. Kunder said•once the
board ;makes its final offer and
asks the teachers to fake it to their
members for a ,vote, a Strike vote
could be held if that offer is
turned down. "It's doubtful that
•
to settle
we would even consider a strike
vote," Mr. Yeats said.
The staff improvement fund, a
board financed levy which pays
teachers who want to take
seminars or short courses for
professional development is also
under discussion.
The board now pays one and a
half percent of the total teaching
budget to the fund but wants to
reduce their contribution to one
half a per cent. Secondary
teachers accepted this cut; but
the elementary teachers want to
see it at one per cent„M r: 'Hunter
says he doesn't think the half a
percentage pbint (about $38,006)
"will constitute an, insuperable
obstacle to settlement."
