Board will require fewer teachers . in 1983 BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE The number of secondary school teachingpositions in Huron County will decline for the 1983-84. school year, but by how much depends on the Board of Education's budget deliberations. The Huron County Board of Education, at its March meeting, approved 239 secondary school teaching positions 'which includes 6.5 special education posi- tions. The total for the coming school year represents a decline from the present 243.1 teaching positions in Huron secondary schools. , The board learned the total for the' coming school year may increase if the cost of two additional teachers, one for student services and the other for Central Huron Secondary School m Clinton, are ap- proved during budget deliberations. Ifapproved, the total teaching positions for secondary school's would be241. There will be a few teaching positions eliminated this coming year, as 2.16 teaching positions were made on a temporary basis last year to enable students to finish programs in Spanish and Latin.
