-13- necessary itan ageold question and one that will probably never be answered to everyones satis faction but its one that never seems to be out of the news right now a group of parents in durham region is con vinced that the extra year of high school ontario is the only province with it is absolutely necessary to the overall well- being of students and to that purpose they have asked education minister bette stephenson to keep it in says sandra malachowski cochairman of the parents advisory council of oneill col legiate oshawa in a letter to the ministera child grows up fast enough in this world with out rushing into another walk of life without that extra year of maturity not so says claremont trus tee linda carder i dont- think thats a valid poin- t youre not going to tell me other students outside of ontario are deprived of a prop er education that ontario stu dents are the only ones to get a good one mrs malachowski said also students would miss toomany basic subjects without gcade isistiidcnts entered in universi tymathematics programs would not have such subjects as calculus if they missed grade 13 mrs carder however feels a condensed program could be made to fit in these extras if high schools just went to grade 12 the question there would be whether some students would drop out as a result she said trustee carder said that stu dents planning to go to unviv- ersily are told by grade 10 what subjects they will need to gain entry and plan accordingly however those changing their minds later on can pick up the subjects they need via night school or summer school prog rams in the region right now many unem ployed studentsaretaking advantage of the courses to pick up extra credits she said grade 13 only means that tax- payers pick up the cost at the local and provincial level whereas university costs are private she said trustee carder said dropping grade 13 would also mean that university would now go to four years from the present three
