Illmuuunmuumxlumlw .____ -_.._--- ---_., Goodwin were present to answer questions, and found themselves almost inundated at times. It was late in the even- ing. after hearing the Vaug- han system compared un- favorably to that in Mark- ham TSA 1 several times, that Mr. Sand told the meet- ing that Vaughan Township has a lot of good things in the educational field. “You have the best person (Hugh Jackson) in the province heading up your audio-vis- ual department. for in- stance.” Mr. Sand said. In- dustrial arts and home eco- nomics are desirable fea- tures, he pointed out. but very costly arrangements. “There are now enough op- tions in grades 9 anle in secondary school that any boy who wants ~shopwork can have it and any girl who wants home economics can have it. There are other things we. in Markham TSA 1. consider more important and those are resource cen- tres. libraries which are meaningful, teachers‘ aids ands of dollars is now too small. I want to offer a Word of congratulation to Vaug- han on a remarkably good job in many ways . . Some of your problems will be removed as a result of this meeting. I am sure," Mr. Sand concluded. The first question faced by Messrs. Jolliffe and Goodwin was posed by the association's Vice-President John Beal who asked, V“ln the inauguration of ‘the system of senior public schools why was Roselawn School select- ed. when it didn't have the necessary facilities?" Mr. Jolliffe replied that the school board has rto consider the whole of Vaughan Town- ship. “We have to consider all children and all schools." he stated. “It is not that we are unaware of the lack of some facilities. the reason they have not been provided is their cost. To do all of the things you would like us to do at one time is econo- mically impossible. We are trying to do as much as we can as quickly as we can." agreed it was a very good idea. Mr. Goodwin pressed for it and we decided to in. troduce it this past year. We needed a new school to ac- commodate the children from our remaining one- room schools and decided to build an absolutely new sen- ior school (The Mackenzie School) on the west side of the township. This school has had some special facilities installed. such as change rooms and lockers in the hall. “However. in the area be- tween Yonge and Bathurst it was necessary to take an existing building and adapt it to senior school use. Rose- lawn was the most central. and the newest school in this part of the township. If and when subdivision develop- ment comes (and We have no control over that). this school will probably revert to being a junior school. with a new senior school being built. including all necessary facilities. “In Maple. we are con- . verting the George Bailey 8- lUUlll, Wlllcll uuuiu UC UuL'Ul.‘ date in three or four years as teaching methods change at a rapid pace. These buildings are supposed to last 50 years." he stated. Mr. Beal argued that to ask a child to come several miles to school and not have proper facilities such as a lunchroom. lockers. etc.. is unfair. “These things should have been given thought. and room should have been set aside for locker space and change rooms." he said. Mr. Goodwin reported that the fire marshal’s regulations will not permit installation of 10ckers in the halls of Roselawn School because of their width â€" a safety factor in clearing the school in case of fire. “If we put in lockers elsewhere. we would have to take actual teaching space. "When we have children in portables, we feel it is better to get them out and into per- manent buildings. rather than [put more of them in. A locker room is not in the plans for the addition. As for u A” u; Luncnuca cu nllcll planning future buildings." a t t a Bussing has been the board's biggest single prob- lem this fall. admitted Mr. Jolliffe. "since it is a new experience for parents and children on this side of the township. We have a good bus company and good driv- ers. and things seem to have settled down“. The board chairman was in for some surprise however. as he learned that parents in the Boyle Subdivision. where transportation is not provid- ed. have made arrangements to have their children bussed to school (not a return trip) for a $1 a month. The bus is on its way back to the gar- age. He was reminded by David McLean that children in that subdivision live over two miles from Reselawn School and the board‘s policy is to provide transportation over a mile and a half. “Mr. Jolliffe. you were to look into this.” Mr. McLean said. The load limit of buses was also questioned, and parents were assured there would be some luul‘ [flutes nerore school begins. “We are geiâ€" iing the maximum use of buses we possibly can." Roselawn Principal Ross Kennedy reported the school has not been responsible for delays in getting home. He also reported bus privilege cards were being distributed this week. If a student misses his bus it is up in him to find his own way home â€" sometimes a teacher will provide that transporta- tion. If a bus privilege card is removed from a child beâ€" cause of infraction of the rules printed on its reverse side. the bus driver will in- form the «school and the school will decide the length of the suspension. This will be long enough to bring the child's misbehavior to the atâ€" tention of the parents and to ensure good behaviour in the future. t a a a Mr. Jolliffe noted that children are under the auâ€" thority and responsibility of the school system while on the bus and Mr. Goodwin set at least one parent's mind at uoouwm replied the board has considered it but has taken no positive action. Answering a question if parents will have the same opportunity to meet and visit teachers. Mr. Kennedy reported that interim reâ€" ports will go out this week. Then parents can make ap- pointments to discuss their children's progress with one or more of the teachers. if possible teachers will make themselves available after school and in the evenings for these interviews. An unhappy mother. who has an unhappy 10-year-old attending grade 6 at Roseâ€" lawn asked if the only rea- son for her child having to walk two miles to school was that there were not enough classrooms at Charles Howitt. She later asked for this year's enrolment. at Charles Hewitt, and when told there were 364 pupils at September 30. retorted that last year there were 437 pupils at that school. “That leaves plenty of room for a grade 6 class â€"â€" two of them in fact". Mr. Goodwin felt Bernard Souche. suggest- ed that lunch periods be cut to 40 minutes. with school closing at 3:20 in order to permit the children to be home before dark in the winter months. He stated this was done effectively in other areas. “This would take a lot of pressure from teacher and pupil and would allow three five minute breaks during the school day. He also suggested the board consider engaging adult Junchroom monitors in free staff from the pressure of noon hour supervision. "As a teacher 1 think leach- ers on rotary need a lot of preparation. a lot of concen- tration. and as little pressure as possible. My child is going to suffer if his teach- ers are not happy." * * wk * Mr. Goodwin reported that the whole point of the senior school system was to get the very best teacher in a subâ€" ject. and noted that the board has started engaging non - professional staff to help its professional staff. notably in providing secretâ€" Although a large majority of the more than 100 people present indicated they would not object to an increase of $5 in taxes to provide a non- professional in o n i t o ring noon-hour staff. Mr. Jolliffe failed to get a response to his question. He asked whether they would object in an annual increase in taxes of $50 for public school purposes. He remind- ed them that at least this amount would be required lo supply all facilities de- sired and would be in addi- tion to increases in other taxes. One ralepayer present said this was a question which should be put to all rate- payers in the township. the small group present was not representative and had no right to make such a de- cision. "We elected you to make these decisions." he declared. Mr. Jolliffe fore- cast an awful hue and cry if the school board did everything it would like to do. “I don't think the people are ready for these things yet." he concluded.
