"Most of the increase occurred at the three secondary schools (281 students)," Kary adds in a news release, release, this academic year. Mike Langlois, the Superintendent Superintendent of Schools, notes there are many issues facing the school boards of today. "Co-ordination of services between between school boards, de-streaming, individually, will meet, and in many cases, will exceed the challenges that the school year will put before us." Folz said. "In looking ahead to 1995 and beyond, it is a recurring theme of mine that the best way we can help our students and our community to FAR HI! common curriculum and the devel- "This is a substantial amount of opment of policies to meet the needs prepare for the future, is first to en growth--12 per cent over last year of a changing society arc a few of sure that our children stay in school. -- and larger Grade 8 classes com- the changes facing educators as stu- an( j second, to provide them with dents head back to school this fall," ^e skills to be creative, contributing Langlois said.

Increased numbers numbers in Grade 6 through 9 in the next few years will result in significant significant increases in secôndary school enrollment." "At the elementary level, kindergarten kindergarten students starting school still exceed the number of Grade 8's graduating, and therefore we have higher enrollment. We are projecting projecting 121 more students in 1994-95, which is below our average increase for the previous year, but it still means we are hiring teachers," Kary said. Figures for 1994 show an increase increase of 121 students in elementary grades, bringing the total to 9,413. Secondary school numbers will jump to 12,035 from 11,633. Over the next few. years, Clarington Clarington separate school taxpayers will see two schools going up in Bowman Bowman ville. One will be for high school students and the other for elementary school students. The Ministry of Education and Training announced future capital grants for these schools in late spring, 1994, states the board's release release late last week.. Planning for these schools is in its early stages, and construction is not anticipated to start for at least a year. School openings would occur in 1996 or 1997. The separate school board has yet to secure sites and services for the construction of the two sites. Looking at the separate school board's budget is Lome Corkery, Board Chairperson who states, "once again, we expect this to be a challenging budget year. "Many steps will be taken to maintain the financial health of our board. I don't think there's any doubt that we are facing some of the worst economic and social pressures ever brought to bear on our education education system. Unfortunately. "I believe these pressures will continue to be with us well into the next century. In spite of what seems to be a preoccupation with budgets and finances, we never lose touch with our first priority -- supporting our children's learning," he said. Controller of Finance, Yvonne Mahoney said, "During this year, we have again experienced considerable considerable growth with the opening of two new elementary schools in Peterborough Peterborough and Lindsay and have an increase of 281 students in our secondary secondary schools. Even with this growth and the implications of grant cutbacks and the Social Contract, we anticipate ending the year within budget." Over the next year 17 new programs programs or initiatives will take place. Among them include the development development and implementation of: • the Anti-Racism and Ethno- Cultural Policy, ■ the Safe Schools Policy, • a Board Communications Plan, • of Employment Equity Policies and Procedures, and • a Freedom of Information/ Protection of Privacy and Records Management Plan. Also, the school board will be administering administering the local Social Contract agreements with the board's five labor labor groups, plus take part in the negotiation negotiation of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association Collective Collective Agreement. But that's not all, 'flic board will be producing five publications on Transportation Policy, Gifted Programs, Programs, Administrative Services, Trustee Representation, and Supervised Supervised Alternative ^earning for excused excused Pupils Program, The board will be reviewing Curriculum Curriculum Review, Development and Implementation Plan, the Special Education Plan, and the Arts Programs Programs (music, visual, art, drama and dance).
