To Ritson School Bloor Street 'East Public This was confirmed at a special meeting of the Oshawa Board of Education yesterday. = However, the closing is seen as &-- only temporary. As the city grows, it may be necessary to add to this school or to find other accommo- | dation in the same section of the city. But in the meantime, in the interests of everyone concerned the school. will be closed. FREE TRANSPORTATION Reasons for the closing are given by Inspector T. R. McEwen in a | letter to parents. The pupils will be transported free of charge by bus to Ritson School. The shift will result in a financial saving of over $2,000 to the Board. Last year, a number of juniors were being transported from this area by taxi to Ritson Road anyway and now i the bus service will look after all pupils. , The new plan will eliminate the necessity for pupils, on foot, crosssing dangerous Highway 401. It will give the Board time to for- mulate plans for additional ac-, commodation in that area. Finally, and most important, it will allow { pupils to enjoy the added facilities { at the larger school. They can now take courses in home economics and manual training. A special bus service will also be provided 'for some 40 pupils live ing north of North Oshawa school. A new bus schedule will allow them to ride to school at a'reasonable hour.
