ACTIVITY REPORT FROM YOUR

District Schools

by J, B. WILSON
Rigg gg gn ggg

In answer to several queries re-
garding school regulations, the
following information is pertinent.

Buses — The School Act states
that children can be required -to
walk the following distances to
school. Grades 1 to 3, 244 miles;
Grades 4 to 13, 3 miles.

If any farther bus service - is
provided within the limits set by
the School Act, the local School
Board must pay the full cost of
the transportation with none of
the cost being shareable by the
department of education. For chil-
dren living beyond the limits stat-
ed above, and where no bus serv-
ice is provided within two miles of
home, .a transportation assistance
is paid by the School Board.

Weather — There is no set de-
gree of temperature which calls
for the closure of schools. Incle-
ment weather in the form of an
extremely heavy snowfall may re-
sult in the closure of schools be-
cause of roads being impassable.

Of course, during a cold spell,
the failure of a heating system or
a power blackout in any particu-
Jar area may force a school clos-
ure until adequate repair has been
completed. Otherwise, rain, hail,
sleet, and any reasonable amount
of snow should not keep our pup-
ils from the halls of learning.

Schools are not required to be
open until 8:45 a.m. and except
in some areas where buses arrive
very early, the teachers are not re-
sponsible for babysitting puptis
left on the school doorstep by par-
ents on their way to work. Pupils
walking to school should leave
home in time to arrive at school
at about 9:45 a.m. and thereby
not have to stand around outside
in bad weather.

Absence and Tardiness — The
School Act states that all absen-
tees and tardy pupils must pro-
vide a written excuse signed by a
parent. or guardian — said excuse

to explain the reason for absence

or tardiness.

Unnecessary absence or tardi-
ness can result in: a. loss of fam-
ily allowance for the child(ren) in
question; ». upon ‘conviction, a
fine of $10 per day per pupil for
each unexplained or unacceptable
absence. .

Further to a previous article on
homework, there is to be noted
that a difference exists between
homework and home study.

Many parents feel that Billy
doesn't get any homework, he
never brings any books home, and
he always says hig work is done,

With respect to homework this
is a formal assignment given in
school by the teacher and to be
completed at a certain time. There
may not always be formal -assign-
ments. However, if you know Billy
ig not ranking “A” in every sub-
ject, there is always room for
home study. In the matter of
home study the school has very
little control, as the onus is on
the parents to insist of Billy that
he bring some books home every
night to study for 10 to 15 minut-
es each on two or three subjects
that are giving him trouble in
school.

Homework is not the whole
answer to Billy’s -problems in

4school, a few scholastic, home-initi-

ated, home study habits will do
much for his education.
