The board will meet in both July and August. There will also be a number of committees meeting meeting during the summer. As you are probably aware of by now the Province has announced full funding for Roman Catholic Private secondary schools. Much has already been written about this move. Opinions naturally run the scale depending on how an individual perceives the change will affect them personally. The Province has not staled how this undertaking is to be accomplished. Details are to be worked out by means of a planning and implementation commission. The Premier says "it will guide and advise all parties on the implementation implementation of this reform." The commission will be made up of representatives of the Ministry of Education, the education community at large and the Roman Catholic community. The Premier has made it clear he will not permit a duplication of facilities as a result of his decision. He states this would be "impractical "impractical and indefensible." On this point he is correct. With , the decline in the birthrate the public school system has a surplus of facilities and staff. To add to this problem would result in a predictable outrage from all taxpayers. But can this be avoided? The decision already promises to cost the taxpayers millions of additional dollars. This at a time when the province has already severely cut back in many areas of public school funding. How will this additional additional cost be paid for? Will the separate school system be agreeable to physically physically sharing facilities with the public schools? As an example, would they want to locale students in the ten empty rooms at Port Hope High School? Fears have already surfaced that such would be unacceptable to many. The Public school system in this province is one of the finest in the world. It provides an equal opportunity to all to a good education. Decisions such as the one made by Premier Davis may have a profound effect on the future of the public school system. I trust we will have ample opportunity for input. As you can see there are many unanswered questions. As a public school trustee I have many concerns about the proposal and its impact on the public school system. However, However, at this time I wish to keep an open mind about the change. I am not prepared to take a stand that trustees in other boards have taken -- open rejection. The separate school people have worked hard to establish a very credible credible school system. The proposed proposed changes mean much to them. If they can be accomplished accomplished without affecting the public school system then maybe everyone will benefit. I am pleased to be a member member of the board's affirmative action committee. It is a committee that promises to provide meaningful direction in the area of equal opportunities opportunities for women. The committee has some major tasks ahead. The structure structure of the committee promises promises a responsible and balanced input. What the committee finally recommends recommends to the board could be a blueprint for the future. Many have a misconception about affirmative action. Some believe "it's another woman's lib thing." Such attitudes are grossly narrowminded narrowminded and an insult to everyone everyone who believes in the deve-. lopmenl of human potential. Affirmative action is not a plan to promote the unqualified. unqualified. It is a plan to provide the qualified an equal chance at advancement. But affirmative action goes much deeper that the promotion issue. Affirmative action must address and break down traditional traditional negative barriers that have artificially restricted career opportunities in society. Men and women must be able to express personal career options without traditional traditional pressures. The problem has both short term and long term solutions. The major goal must be one of education. Much of today's difficulty in equal opportunity stems from attitudes. They can be difficult to change but we must start somewhere.
