NEE er ---- 2 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, November 6, 1990 From Page 1 The forecast adopted this year contains 35 other projects at a total cost of $343 million. Mrs. Drew noted that last year, the Durham Board re- ceived the green light to con- struct two new schools. The S.A. Cawker addition is ranked 15 on the priority list; the Cartwright H.S. is 20 on the list; and the new elementary school is 35 on the list. The cost of the addition to Cawker School is estimated at $1.7 million, and calls for three new classrooms, two junior kin- dergarten rooms and one pri- mary room, for a total of 205 students. The school, which just opened last year, already has ten portables on site. The replacement of Cart- wright High School at a cost of $6.4 million calls for a new building with three classrooms, two science labs, an art room, two music rooms, a computer room, one special ed room and a double gym. The number of stu- dent placesis put at 210. A day care centre is includ- ed in the plans at an extra cost of $360,000. It is provincial law that any new school builtin On- tario must include a day care centre. As for the new elementary school on Scugog Island for 426 students, the forecast calls for two junior kindergarten, two senior kindergarten, two pri- mary rooms, three classrooms, two special ed rooms, and rooms for science, art and music. The cost is estimated at $5.7 million. Mrs. Kelly told the Star that if the Board eventually gets approval to proceed with a new high school in Blackstock, it most likely will be built on land now owned by the Board at Cartwright Central PS.

First, the Board already owns the land at the public school; the two schools could share some facili- ties (like the gyms) and it is not economically feasible to put an addition to the present high school, which is 65 years old. As for the proposed school on Scugog Island, the Board has yet to determine the location, she said. The forecast calls for con- struction of the addition to Caw- ker to be completed in 1994; the new elementary school in 1995 Three Scugog projects on "wish list' and the new high school in 1994. However, the trustees stressed that itis not realistic to expect that the forecast timeta- bles will be met. The top priorities for the Durham Board in 1991 are to secure funds for core additions to two elementary schools in Whitby and two in Ajax. at a cost of just under $9 million. School construction costs are now shared with the Prov- ince paying about 60 per cent, and the Board the remainder. Regional Chairman Herrema recovering well from surgery Regional Chairman Gary Herremais on the road to recov- ery. The chairman underwent surgery to correct a deteriorat- ed bone condition in his upper leftlegon Oct. 23. The damaged tissue was suc- cessfully removed during the operation and a steel plate was inserted to reinforce the limb. The surgery took place at York County Hospital in New- market. He was released from hospital three days later and is now convalescing at his home in Uxbridge. Mr. Herrema's doctor has ad- Oppositionto ' From Page 1 In reponse to questions from the floor, he said efforts to share admin. facilities with both Durham Region or the Separate School Board were not successful. He said ifthe buildingis ap- proved, construction would probably get underway in 1993. But members of CAUT who attended the public meeting continued to express strong op- position to the proposal. And one member of the public, Noreen Malcolm was ap- plauded when she suggested that if portables are good enough for Durham students, perhaps the Board might con- sider portables as office space for the staff.

Following a short convales- cent and therapy treatment pe- riod at home, he plans to take "a well deserved vacation," chief administrative officer Don Evans told the Port Perry Star. Mr. Herrema is not expected to return to his office until the end of November. Whitby May- or Bob Attersley will perform the duties of acting chairman until the end of November . If the chairman is still not back to the office, Ajax Mayor Jim Wit- ty will take over the responsi- bilities until the chairman re- turns. The family has requested that no one call or visit the chairman at home during his recovery or he will not get the rest he needs, Mr. Evans told the press. we haven't gone ut of 9 our mind ...we just want to convince you that Bodum Plunger made coffee is better Come and Taste freshly made Bodum coffee ... and wish, you can walk away with a 2-cup Bodum Presso coffee maker at the incredibly low cost of Hrd suggested retad 's 18.95.
