Weston 254 JU. 4186 \ Warden Named Successor | _ Soft words are frequently more efâ€" fective than hard facts. is Attendance reports for the High and Vocational School for the month of â€"March were as follows:; March, 1985, High School, 419, Vocational, 447, total of 866; March, 1936â€"High School 486, Vocational School 533, with | total of 969. Regarding Absentees Trustee Dr. F. D. Cruickshank spoke at some length on the question of the list of absentees from Weston High and Vocational School, particularly the Vocational division, and presented some rather startling figures. In the past 15 days there had been 610 absent from the &igh School and 1205 absent from the Vocational School. Since March 15th, there had been an average of 121 pupils absent daily and the total had risen some days as high as 175. "In our Vocational division we have five County pupils to one pupil from the town, and there is a 50â€"50 division in the academic. We are compelled by the Act to fix our charge and our income is governed by our attendance," stated Dr. Cruickshank. "Any deviation from that must be borne by the taxpayers of Weston. 1 think it is time the Council and the citizens of Weston realized how serious this situation is and that our loss in income is very great because of these absentees, and the taxpayer carries the burden. If allowed to continue, the matter may become even more serious. _ It is time we had some definâ€" ite understanding with the Departâ€" ment regarding these County pupils." Chairman Oliver Ma»;ter was olfl tl;)i, opinion that evertually, it wi necessary to have h-petial bill‘gassed’ to regulate the position of eston High and Vocational Schol, which isi unique in the County of York. It was | decided to have Chairman Master} make immediate efforts to secure an appointment with Supervisor A. J. B. Gray to discuss the matter, and folâ€" lowing that, an appointment with the Department of Education heads. It was felt the matter was too serious to let rest any longer, without wholeâ€" hearted efforts being made to remedy' the situation.
