Fairman Parents visit board The Durham Board of Education is getting ready for a visit from Whitby's &.A. Fairman parents.

The Durham board does not provide busing for French immersion students unless they are on a bus route for other pick-ups such as special education students. When special education classes were moved fromn E.A. Fair- man in Seplember, parents had 10 provide transportation tb E.A. Fairman for French immersion.
