Buinting asked, "Is what you're doing compatible with the roof that's up there?" Ernst: "Absolutely". Board member Eileen Zurblis asked, "Are you suggesting that the junior high's roof only has three years to go?" Ernst replied that, yes, this work ;.s only a stopgap measure. He added that "ini its most violent form, the roof could fracture and open at the edge. What we're looking for is a way to seal the whole roof while we search for a way to fasten the roof securely." " Board member T. Newbrough asked, "What are the implications of using Life Safety Code money to redo the whole roof now?" Business Manager Bill Landis responded, "We have the capability of Life Safety taxes generating 185,000 at our December levy. That Just covers the cost of this job. We haven't had that five-cent levy for life safety on for some time. We're going to have to get into a regular roofing program." The board accepted unanimously the bid of Engineering Roofing of Sterling, 111., in the amount of $76,340. There were no local bidders. In other business, the board ap­ proved hiring bus drivers Michael Koch and Cathie LaBay at a rate of $4.90 per run, and Lenore Freund as a cafeteria worker at Edgebrook school at $3.35 per hour. The board also approved an, amendment to the Professional Negotiations agreement with the teachers' association which would increase to 8 percent of salary the amount of teachers' retirement which will be tax-sheltered by the board. The board approved the purchase by Valley View school of a Zerox 2400 copy machine, after bid, for an ap­ proximate price of $10,800. The price will be covered by donations from the Valley View PTO and the regular building budget. The purchase needed to be specially approved by the board since the purchase contract would be binding for five years. Last, the board approved a new long-term substitute policy for those situations when the duration of the sick leave is unknown in advance. The board approved a pay scale of $35 per day for days 1-5, $55 per day for days 6-15, and $66 per day for a substitute for each day after the 15th day. Such payment would be ap­ proved at the nearest business meeting when necessary.

The idea for the alcohol and drug abuse program evolved from a County board Health and Agriculture com­ mittee meeting which resulted from a growing realization that no group or organization seemed to make alcohol and the abuse of other drugs a No. 1 priority issue, explained Mrs. Hughes. Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. Phyllis Walters and Mrs. Lou Anne Majewski - all members of the County board - were named to a sub-committee to focus attention on this growing social, legal, and moral problem in McHenry county. One goal was to increase com­ munity awareness, and when they contacted other organizations, response was so enthusiastic that a one-program approach gave way to a series of presentations. The two-day workshop was the most recent example of increased community concern. The McHenry county regional superintendent, Ed Hall, and his staff showed interest in the workshop. They joined the sub-committee and the Illinois state board oi education to host the workshop. Sub-committee members are Ann Hughes, chairman; Lou Anne Majewski, Phyllis Walters, County board; Robert Blazier, superin­ tendent of Crystal Lake School District 47; Peggy Kubert, Youth Service bureau; Jackie Mansholt, Family Services and Community Mental Health center; Dixie O'Hara, county school office; Tom Olszewski and George Shirey, Sheriff's depart­ ment; Frank Rhode, Jr., public defender; Jade Smith, McHenry East high school, and Denny Spraetz, Johnsburg high school.
