Although this year's Simcoe County Roman Catholic Separate School Board budget of $13.149. 227 is up $1,898,643 over last year (an increase of 16.88 percent), trustees on the board call the new document "realistic." The budget, approved last week in Barrie during a regular meeting of the county board, will mean an average increase in the mill rate of between eight and nine percent. Committee Chairman J. Feehely, in presenting the 1981 budget noted that the board received some additional assistance as a result of the Ministry of Education's decision to increase grants for French in- struction and Grade 9 and 10 students. The additional assistance for French as a Second Language was particularly welcome for the board's expanded program. As a RC board's 1981 budget called 'realistic' result. mill rate increases will be in the eight to nine percent range. The total budget provides for two capital proiects not permanently financed at the end of 1980. Purchase of a site in Bradford and purchase of the demountable St. Ann's School in Penetanguishene are the two projects left outstanding from the previous year. The budget provides for expansion of the board's special education services and ad- ditional staff to meet enrolment growth. Maior areas of expenditure are $280,412 for business administration, $8,944,709 for in- struction, $1,312,886 for plant operation and maintenance, $1,445,874 for transportation, and $545,886 for retirement of long-term debt on building. - Diver's death Cause unknown jury admits...
