DECEMBER 4, 1969 Addition To Schreiber Public School - conttd from page A of Revenue and Expenditures up to the end of October. It would appear that by exercising extreme care the expenditures for the year will not exceed the budget. It was learned that on October 22nd and 23rd Mrs. Deol and members of the Association for the Mentally Retarded had taken the children from the school for Trainable Retarded in Marathon to the city of Thunder Bay. While there the children visited the Atrport, Twinhaven School, Shaw's Baker, the Telivision Station, Planetarium and Chippawa Park. Mrs. Deol commented that the field trip was most rewarding to the children. It was Ggetded to engege a firm of architects, Smith,Carter Parkin, of 'hunder Bay, in preparation for the proposed addi- tion to the Schreiber Public School. It was planned to have the teachers and principal of the school become involved in the planning for this addition, Mr. H. Rutetzki of Manitouwadge was duly elected as Trustee to complete the remaining term of office of Mrs. Marilyn Beacon who resigned recently. An inqutfy has been sent to the members of the Staff-Board Relations Committee regarding a proposed meeting at an early date. Vocal music will be reintroduced into the curriculum at the Alexander Publio School in January of 1970 with the en- gagement of a well qualified teacher, Mrs. Jane Wirtz. Mr. Don Sgmon will replace Mrs. Marilyn Beacon as a member the Advisory Committee for the Trainable Retarded.

Mr. G.R. Saumur has been nominated for a two year term as a teacher in schools in Burope operated by the Department of National Defence. Policy was set regarding the use of school premises outside ef school hours. The community is encouraged to use school facilities in the evenings and on weekends. The problem of supervision was discussed at length and it was decided that if the group using the facilities can offer supervision by responsible adults which is considered to be adequate by the Board, it is not absolutely necessary to have a Board Custodiaz in attendance. Rates will vary from commnity to commnity. Considerable discussion took place regarding finances for the operation of the schools for the remaining part of 1969. It was learned that, although two letters had been written by the Hon. W. Darcy MoKeough, Minister of Municipal Affairs, to Mr. J.G. Palmer, Chairman of the Board of Trustees for the Improvement District of Marathon, requesting thet Marathon's outstanding account with the Lake Superior Board of Education be paid without further delay, no monies had been received to date from the Improvement District of Marathon by the Lake Superior Board of Education. Because of this the Board is now faced with major financing through the banks in order to con- tinue the operation of its schools. The Board was notified that the Ontario Paper Company will be moving from the Heron Bay area in the summer of 1970 Accordingly two rooms of the Heron Bay School will remain open next fall to accommodate grades one to six and that grade seve and eight pupils will be transported to Marathon for their q education.
