(My father was one for three_ years.) In the late Mftes, these were axnalgamated mnto township echool boards. Later, in the sixties, township boards were consolidated into county school boards. We know our history. The rnove to larger and larger boards cost more and more money. Anybody really think that this government will implement the Sweeney Report and create superboards with up te 60,000 students each? And have us believe that will save money? No sir. So here's Snobelen's solution: we abolish al echool boards. Each school can then be run by the parent council, elected by the parents of children attending the sehool. Trustees aren't paid. Each echool je funded directly by the province. Education coste are assessed provincially through income tax. What? No income tax for education 30 years ago? Sorry, ALFRED C.
