By JAN DODGE Free Press Staff The Durham Board oi Eduication la asking the Mfinistry of Education for almost $14 million for elementary school capital projects and another $228,000 for secondary. At Monday nlght's regular meeting of the board, chairman Ruth Lafarga emphasized the "urgent need for pupil places in Diurham." She said Durham, Peel, York, and Carleton are the four boards in Ontario with the greatest grow.th problenis. Witb the 5,000 housing starts in Durham last year, she said students were coniing into the systens right through the year, not just in Sep- tember. Four schools (Col. J.E. Farewell and Dr. Robert Thornton in Whitby, a Pickering sehool and an Oshawa school) are afready full and cannot take anymoro students, Lafarga said. Some schools have so many portables that they are eating into playground space, she said. Portables also put pressure on washrooms, general purpose roorns, and libraries. One olementary school in Pickering has 16 por- tables; Dr., Robert Thornton, and Col. J.E. Farewell each have 10. Grants froni the ministry pay for a very small percentage of por- table classrooms (about ono-third) Lafarga said. "For the rest we* are paying with Durham dollars." Despito arguments by trustees Ian Brown and Pst Bowman, a new school for Witby and an addition for Palmer- ston Avenue will remain ini fifth and sixth position on the Durhami Board of Education's capital forecast list. The dloser the project is to the top of the lust, the greater the chance the ministry will provide funding thus enabling the project to go ahoad. Those not begun' within the specifiod year are reassigned a new position according to area needs. A school for Port Perry, Westney Heights in Ajax, an addition for Gandatsetiagon in Pickering, and a school for Maple Ridge ini Pickering made the top four spots on the list. "They're ail number one with us," Lafarga said, "but we have to rate themn for the ministry (to qualify for funding)." Brown wanted to move the Pickering school addition to sixth place, the Kendalwood sehool for Whitby up to fourth, and the Palmer- ston addition up to fifth. Parents i the Ken- dalwood ares had been waiting eight years for a school, Brown said. He pointed out the use of ton portables at Dr. Robert Thornton and the fact that the Ken- dalwood site must be purchased in 1987 or the board would lose the op- tion. Last year's capital forecast, Brown remin- ded the board, bas Ken- dalwood in ffrst place for 1987. Now it was boing dropped to fifth. The Palmerston ad- dition whilch had been in third'place was dropped to sixth. To <Bowman's question whether the site would be bast for Kendalwood, Jirn Russell, superintendent of plant, replied, the board had sent a letter to the nlstry asking Seep.22 Shuffle takes place on town committees A cabinet shuffle of sorts took place at Whltby council on Monday night.
