separate school board chairman to separate school pupils has something to say about it What board member Fa Iher J W Flaherty would like to see boxing gloves handy in every Helton separ ate school Then Instead of flailing sway out in the school yard young pugilists would be free to step Inside and settle their differences in a gentle manly manner OTHER IDEAS However Separate School Board Chairman Braida has other ideas on the sub ject Father Flahertys ed to bis opinion but I can see where parents might ob ject to the idea of encoura ging fights says Braida However admits he himself

Joint School Job Program Would Find Favour With Halton Industries by Don Melted In the Journal Go to school 8 until noon Then go to your Job The work ties In with what youre studying In Get paid the regular wage while the Job itself counts for full course credit towards gra duation Such a Joint program school board and Indus try commonplace In the US does not exist In Ontario schools But and Peel Indus tries wont It to happen here PAGE REPORT A 150 page report to the ton county board of education on cooperative education pro grams Is being completed Una The reports amber Cotm Campbell SO teacher of auto motive technology end modern history at White Oaks second ary school hopes to get document before the board by the end of March The board granted Campbell an educational leave September to December to gather information and try to lay the foundation for work experience program for high schools SUPPORT IDEA He described employers re action to the idea tremendous Every local employer contac ted Including and Gulf Bell Canada Bank of Nova Scotia Bank of Montreal Royal Bank of Canada Ontario Hydro Enamels and Ancaster sup ports the idea of paying high school students for onthejob training the plant or office Campbell reports He also polled about teachers at three different Hal ton schools and got the ironic result of a fair number of teachers saying the students should not get paid for the training work DISCIPLINE ESSENTIAL For Campbell a regular wage and the everyday discipline of the workplace are essential if the experience is going to be real to the student Instead of unreal atmosphere traditional schooling White Oaks teacher tra velled on shoestring to War- Michigan and Wisconsin lost fall spending of his own In the process get a look at full programs He came back very Impressed ASTOUNDED He obtained a report from Bell Telephone in the US which pointed out that cooperative work experience ventures started there In 1900 and now operating In 39 of the SO states I was astounded how widespread they Campbell says Even the North York board which probably furthest advanced program of any in Ontario Is completely unreal in comparison They just send the kids out for one or two weeks with little or no teacher supervision its damned good the board says Well what else do expect them to say FINAL SAY Teachers in Warren Michi gan go out regularly to sup ervise the onthejob work their students says Campbell The teacher has the final say not the employer If tho teach- not satisfied with the in struction the student Is get ting be can pull him off the Job The quality of the students k in the plant is graded and counted as If be was In The employer can Are Urn and for the student thats comparable to failing the course Its a totally real si tuation Campbell stresses ONE SMALL PART The school building with its teachers and resources is Just one smell port of the commu nity he points out A school program should be an Integral part of tho real working world but instead tends to be Insula led from it High school graduates would be more sure of what they were doing when they left school if they had begun the transition through a work perienco program Campbell says His report entitled Learning by Living is being submitted to the Ontario Institute for studies In Education which is interested in having it pub lished COULD MEAN SAVING All the local Industries Campbell contacted wont copy of the report as do about a dozen Ontario school boards whom Campbell visited while THE GEORGETOWN HERALD THURSDAY MARCH PAGE 3 gathering Information Every board I talked to assumed that If Its a new pro gram and Its got something to do with education well then it most cost mora money Actual ly It could mean a savings Campbell pointed out Savings on classroom space because less students would be In the ling any one time sav ings on teachers and on costly shop equipment which soon be comes obsolescent anyway Campbell says be la mak
