This year. the majority of trustees seemed less concerned with the concepts and value of PA days than with the number of days students would be out of the classrooms. C-6 â€" THE LIBERAL.

The plan was drawn up last summer and lists definitive steps and goals the board has for the professional development of its teaching staff, public involvement, awareness and ac- ceptance of the benefits of PA days.
