Trustees and teachers of the Huron -Perth
Separate School Board have agreed to put in
place,.,a cooperative five-year plan that at
one and the same time puts library resource
-personnel on staff at each school and pro-
vides each "classroom teacher" with hal£-
•day per month of in -school teacher planning
time. -
The Board over the'last eight years made
significant improvements by constructing a
number of new libraries, committing addi-
tional dollars to the purchase of library
materials and the hiring of a system
librarian resource teacher. Centrally' based
Resources such as video programs and in-
dividual classroom kits are available
through the media centre located at the
board office in Dublin. The availability of
these resources has helped improve pro-
grams. in the 18 schools under the Board's
jurisdiction. Materials are delivered weekly
to the schools via the Board's courier,
service.
The plan results from what• was a strong
conviction on the part of administration,
trustees and teachers that the introduction
of library resource teachers in every school
will permit us to provide more specializa-
tion in the teaching of library and related
research skills Il and create mare oppor-
tunities to meet individual needs of
students. The allocation of teacher resource
'time will vary according to size of school. In
a 10 -room school, the teacher will spend ap-
proximately 50 days of the school year in
classrooms and/or the library delivering
library related instruction directly to
children. An additional 25 • days of the
librarian's time will be spent with duties
directly related to providing planning help
and library resources directly to teachers
and students. Similarly smaller and larger
schools will receive library resource time in
proportion to their size.
William Eckert, Director. of Education,
said, "By allocating teacher librarian time
to every school' in the system and at the
same time providing classroom teachers
with meaningful blocks of planning time,
there is no doubt that children will benefit. It
is a much needed. and significant
improvement."
He also acknowledged that "the will-,
ingness of teachers and trustees to
cooperate and make a commitment to a
five-year plan, that will be consistent from
year to year, will lead teethe successful im-
plementation of the Ministry of . Education
document, Partners in Action."
Seminar will deal with high water levels
Scarcely a day goes by without seeing an
article in the news about the high water
levels in the Great Lakes, and the effects of
the high water levels make themselves
known during stormy weather. But what,
manywonder, caused the levels to be so
high, and what can.be done to protect pro-
perty form.The erosion which occurs?
Recognizing these concerns, the Georgian
Bay Chapter of the Association of Profes-
sional Engineeers, decided to sponsor a
public information seminar, to find out
some of the answers. The seminar has been
arranged for Saturday, May 23, at Georgian
College in Owen Sound from 1:00 p.m. to
5:00 p.m. The public will be invited to attend
this seminar by advertisements in the local
newspapers, and representatives ' from
municipalities, the counties, and the
townships have been invited.
At the seminar, speakers form the Inter-
national Joint Commission, the Environ-
ment Canada Great Lakes Water Levels
Communication Centre, the Department of
Fisheries and Oceans Bayfield Institute, On-
tario Ministry of Natural Resources, and the
Conservation Authorities will speak, and
answer questions. Subjects will include, the
history of the problem, what the future
holds,, what is being done to control and
communicate the levels, protection techni-
ques to follow,.and funding available.
This is an ideal opportunity to attend this
free seminar, to learn about the causes of
the. problem, and to learn what corrective
actions may be taken.
This seminar is presented by the Georgian
Bay Chapter of the Association of Profes-
sional Engineers of Ontario as a public ser-
vice, in recognition of 1987 being the Centen-
nial of Engineering in Canada. All members
of the public are invited to attend.
