There are about 120 students already registered for classes at the new school, which willy be called Immaculate Conception and . will include Junior Kinder- garten through to Grade 8. Although the Separate School Board officially endorsed the opening of classes for this September, the question of whether to hold them in the present church hall on Highway 7A in Port Perry or in portables has not yet been resolved. Members of the parish . have told the Board the hall could be renovated for class- rooms, if-neeéssary, but they would prefer that portables be set up on the church property. . When the board gave its official approval for the classes earlier this month, education director Earl Legroix suggested that the Board lease the hall ifom the parish for classrooms while plans are undertaken for construction of a permanent building. The matter will be determined by the Board later this year. by the 0.M.B. Council was told March 23 that does not appear possible, and members agreed to forward the objec- tions to the Board.
