Shiner, in his second attempt to win a seat on the board, predicts an increasing need for good education at the same time as decreasing financial assistance from the province will provide Durham trustees with "very hard decisions if they are going to meet the challenge." Referring to his recent secondment to Anderson collegiate to assist in a one-week evaluation, he said, The Oshawa Sym- phony Association will present the first concert of the 1985-86 season, on Sunday, Oct. 6 at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of Eastdale Collegiate, Harmony Rd. N., Oshawa. The 42-year-old can- didate for trustee said he originally had no in- tention of running but got involved through his daughter in school, later through the council of home and school associations and through attending board of education meetings. -It was frustrating sitting 'in the gallery hearing questions that weren't asked and should have been and realizing the answers could have made a dif- ference."

" Shiner has had a 10- year involvement with the Home and School Association, serving originally as a vice- president and council representative from his daughter's school, and later as chairman of the education committee, vice-president, presi- dent, and past president of the Durham Council of Home and Sehool Associations. originated a study which convinced the Durham council to op- pose changing kim- dergarten from every day to every other day; and he prepared a response to the board's discipline policy. Shiner initiated, prepared, and assisted the team from the On- tario Federation of Home and School Associations in the presentation before the Minister of Education of two briefs: the first urged provincial grant increases to boards of eilcation; the second asked the Ministry of Education not to proceed with pooling commercial and in- dustrial assessment. Besides Home and School activities Shiner chaired the committee which studied finances for CEDSS (Co- operative Evaluation and Development of School Systems) a study, sponsored by the ministry and the Durham board to look at education in Durham. Shiner also par- ticipated in SERP (Secondary Education Review Project) a study which formed the basis for the Durham board's response to the ministry's report on proposed changes for secondary achools, in- cluding the elimination of grade 13.
