0 A Kk 8 Brooklyn, N. Mr. J. Sterling, Principal of Ajax High School, welcomed the teachers of Ontario Count§y to his school on February 27, for their second Professional Development half day. Mr, Ted Blowes of Ander- son Street Collegiate and Voc- ational 'Institute was Chair- man of the meeting. Mr. Mal- com Turnbull of the R.S¢ McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institute in Osh- awa, Chairman of the Profes- sional Development Commit- tee, welcomed Dr. S. Segal, Principal of the John Dewey High School in Brooklyn, and his Administrative Assistant, Mr. A. Taub. These gentlemen - came in place of the super- intendent in Brooklyn, Mr. Donovan, who was unable to attend. Dr. Segal gave a dynamic address in which he stated that although there are ninety-five high "schools in New York City, the John Dewey School, which will open in the fall of '69 is the first ungraded one, and it will run on a twelve month basis. The summer months will give an opportuni ity to the students to progress more rapidly or to reinforce studies in which they ar weak. Schedules for thisschool will be organized, not annually but every six weeks. If a youngster is falling - behind The word which Dr. Segal kept repeating was adventure. This is what he feels education should be. He sees a high school as the piece of string which allows a kite to soar, to see marvellous vistas but which does keep a measure of control. : After his speech, Mr. Segal and Mr. Taub answered quest- ions from a panel consisting in his work, this situation|of Mr. G.

The administrators from Brooklyn were thanked by Miss Janet Horner of the Dunbarton High School. After a coffee break, the teachers returned to the aud- itorium to hear short addres- ses by Mr. S.E. Lovell, Chair- man of the Ontario Board of Education, and by Mr. George Roberts, Director. ~ Mr. Lovell pointed out that the one guideline the Board had received from the Depart- ment of Education was the statement that equality of education was to be provided for every child. Mr. Lovell said that he sees the Board as a policy-making body and feels that administration should be 'left to the administrators. He emphasized that the Board is endeavouring at all times to take a broad view of the educ- ational system under its cont- rol and that it is very careful to adopt a county outlook rather than one of any part- icular region in the County. Mr. Lovell feels that is signi- ficant that the first committee appointed by the Board was one on communication. Mr. Roberts sees his role as that of an organizer of resources to help create a climate in which teachers can work. He sees the teacher as a professional person who is involved in personal service and in doing a total job no matter how many hours this takes, and he feels that the professional man should have considerable range of freedom and responsibility, in his field but that he must assume the responsibility for the conse- quences of his actions. Mr. Roberts also pointed out that more value must be squeezed out of the educational dollar. Mr. Lovell, Mr. Robertsand Mr. Munroe then answered questions from a panel cons- isting of Miss Margaret Pellow of Oshawa Central Collegiate Institute; Mr. Douglas Kettle, Principal of Pickering High School; Mr. W. Moreau, Vice- Principal of Ajax High School and Mr. Ray Newton of Ux- bridge Secondary-School. Y. Principal Speaks To Cty. Teachers The Members of the Board and the panel were thanked by Mr. Eric Porter of the Eastdale Collegiate and Voc- ational Institute.

Req- uirements for the regular Herd Book will remain un- changed. : Animals in the Alternate Herd Book will be eligible for all the Association programs. However, a vote of the mem- bers recommended that for the time being at least, animals in the Alternate Herd Book should not be eligible to show at fairs. Once an animal is regist- ered in the Alternate Herd Book it cannot subsequently be registered in the regular Herd Book, nor can it pro- geny be registered in the regular Herd Book. They must be registered in the Alternate Herd Book. TODAY'S CHILD You could imagine Blair is looking so wistful because he has no Mummy or Daddy. Of course this handsome little boy, who will have his third birthday in two months, is too young to know he is one of Ontario's many children without parents. But he is puzzled, because he has had several moves and really doesn't know where he belongs. Blair very much needs to be adopted so he can have the love and security of a home of his own. This is a friendly, affectionate child who; loves attention and enjoys con- versation, though his contribution isn't always under- standable. He is not demanding and can entertain himself easily with TV, coloring books and mechanical toys, especially anything with wheels. Blair has big brown eyes, light brown hair and fair skin, He was slow in walking and has not yet fully developed leg co-ordination but is in good health. with no hereditary diseases in his background. He has been learning both English and French so could fit well into a family where either language is spoken. To inquire about adopting Blair please write to Today's Child, Department of Social and Family Services, Parliament Buildings, Toronto 5. For general information about adoption ask your local Children's Aid Society. ae Re ow $ AA 2
