North IJmberland -Clari ngton Board Of Education Highlights A provinciffl proposal for a new funding model for edu- cation was described as a possible threât f0 the special needs in the public education system 1lst night. Superintendëlnf of business Ron Sudds tpld trustees at the regular board meeting that the provincial document is "sketcby ... It seems to, be a collapsing of the pre§ent gov- emnment granit structure and a skeptic would say that it's being collapsed to ýtake the money out of the system. The possible threat, be said, is to students witb spe- cial leaming needs, those in french as a first or second language program, and those in english as a second lan- guage programn. Sudds said there is no def- inition of special needs in the document. Instead it focuses on a general, "foundafion" grant. "If everyone gets an average grant, what bappens if ýthe publicelboard is dealing witb more special needs stu- dents than other bqards?" Sudds said he did "applaud" the decision to include "an accountability framework" but suggested-that it go fur- ther than the Ministry is proposing. The document was released by the Ministry of Education in late September wifh a response-date of early October. Campbehlford area trustee Lilian Brode, vice chairperson of the board, 'said, as an accountant, 'el feit my blood pressure'rising" when she read the report. "There is s0 much in (the report) that doesn't make sense." Brode says the report only, deals with school costs. Who will pay the teachers, under this model, she asked. MACLEOD TO RESIGN In a short but emofional speech, Campbellford area trustee Karen Macleod last night informed trustees she wîll be formally submitting ber resignation at the next board meeting on October 10. Macleod has served as a trustee with the board for seven years. She and her family will be leaving soon f0 take up residence in the United States. Chairperson of the board Bob Willsher paid tribute to Macleod saying she has'left her mark on the. local educational system. 13RIGHTON BU'S ISSUE A request fromn parents liv- ing oný Dundas and Smith Streefs in Brighton Township to restore busing to the local bigh school for their students was referred f0 the Operations and Finance coin- mittee for further discussion. The students live wîthin the walking distance for busing in the board but parents argue conditions on their rural roads aren't safe. -Courtice area trustee David Gray said "there are classic problems on rural roads in Ontario. We'shouldn't be dealing with them in isola- tion." VICE PRINCIPAL APPOINTMENTS 1Dave Skeaff, currently act- ing vice principal at Brighton Public School, has been pro- moted to vice principal and Monique Warren-Grybas, a program resource'teacher at the board office, bas been appointed vice principal at Beatrice Strong Public Scbool in Port Hope.
