Hunger i in 3rd Worid
‘Is Still a Way of Life

By TED BRISTOW

: “In the Third World you
have to work from dawn to
dusk to get enough to eat,” said
Anne Holden, representing the
Castlegar Third World Concern
group at a lunch held at St.
David's Church last Sunday.

*- “You may lock at pictures
{rom the Third World and think
everyone looks fed," Holden
went on to say, “but after living
in Nigeria for four years, Tean

sically weak, their IQs are low

lem of the Third World, Most of
the good farm land is owned by
United Fruitgrowers to raise
export crops for the United
States,

A lively discussion took
place on how the basic problem
of land ownership would even-
tually be solved,

The lunch was arranged by
the Anglican and United
Churches as part of an educa-
tional program on the problem
of food availability.

The luneh began with an

Slides were shown of an
agricultural project in rural
Guatemaia which Castiegar has
supported as one illustration of
how effectively poor people can
be taught to help themselves to
a better life.

+ The Guatemala project em-
phasizes basic things like ter-
racing, composting, and new
types of crops.

heaping plates of stew, The
discussion which followed illus-
trated the frustration, power-

lessness, jealousy, lack of -

uwareness, and generosity
which are part of the world
picture of hunger.

By the time people shared
their full plates with -their
“poor” neighbors, there was
enough food for everyone,
though not enough to give the
usual “full” feeling that gocs

expect.

How to Finance a School System

: By VERA KANIGAN’

: At the January inaugural
meeting of the board of trust-
ees for School District No. 9,
new trustees were sworn in and
committees appointed—includ-
ing a newly-created Public

foe Canna

on financing British Columbia
public schools.

The goal of the committee
is to provide information to the
public about education on a
monthly basis, in addition to
what the press already reports,

bers welcome

: In the past, although sev-
eral trustees had exercised
their privilege to submit arti-
cles to the Castlegar News, it
was felt that a more organized
approach should be used. Dur-
ing a seminar at Fairmont Hot
Springs last September, trust-
ees learned of other districts’
public relations endeavors.

The local. committee con-
sists of four people—Supervisor
of Instruction Tom Good, prin-
cipals’ representative Terry
Rogers, as well as two trustees,
Stewart Webster and Vera
Kanigan.

: At the first meeting, a list
of interest areas were outlined
and committee members were
pleased to accept an idea from
trustee Anne Jones, to publish
a series of articles on public
school financing. The first is a
very comprehensive report

How the Cost-Sharing
Formula Works

British Columbia's public
school system has two main
sources of revenue: direct
grants to schoo! districts from
the provincial government, and
property taxes levied in the
school districts.

The Public Schools Act
stipulates that the school dis-
tricts break down their budgets
into operating and capital ex-
penditures.

The formula by which

operating costs are raised is the
more complicated because it
makes provision for two as-
pects of education.
* (1) A basie education pro-
gram, which is geared to ensure
equality of educational oppor-
tunity for all pupils in B.C., the
costs of which are shared by the
provincial government and the
school districts.

According to Sections 180
and 181 of the Public Schools
Act each district is given a
number of instructional units
based on the number of stu-
dents, Then a dollar value is set
for each instructional unit. The

total number: of instructional
units is multiplied by the dollar
value to establish the cost of
the basic education program.

{It should be emphasized
that ‘instructional unit’ is solely
a convenient financial term and
in no way refers to physical
classroom space, class size or
pupil-teacher ratio.)

The provincial govern-
ment’s share of the basic
education program is in the
form of a direct grant which, is
the difference between the cost
of the basic education program
in that district and the amount
of money that can be raised by
a basic property tax levy which
is the same in all school dis-
tricts.

Thus a district with a high
assessment base will receive a
smaller operating-grant than a

school district's basic education
program are:

(1) That 20 full-time
equivalent pupils equal one
instructional unit.

(2) That the value of an
instructional unit in 1978 is
$27,000.

(3) The total cost of trans-

. portation and auxiliary ser-

vices.

Basic Operating Grant

The amount paid by the
government to. each school
district is dependent on two
factors, the basic education tax
levy and the assessed values for
school tax purposes. The basic
levy is determined each year by
the Lieutenant-Governor in
Councif under the provisions of
Section 180 (8) of the Public
Schools Act and the assessed
values are certified by a

Ce

by each district. The remainder
is paid by the government.

It is apparent that any
change in ‘either the assessed
values or the basic levy will
affect the amount of the grant.

Local Cost

Section 180 of the Public
Schools Act states that the
board of each district shall
assume as its obligation the
amount by which the total
budget of the schoo! district for
operating expenses exceeds the
sum of the basic grant and the
‘supplementary grant, if any,
calculated under this section,

The impact of this pro-
vision can best be seen in the
following example, using fic-
titious School District “X”
where operating expenses are
assumed for the sake of illus-
tration to exceed the cost of the

district with a low
base. But each will have the

same amount of money, propor: ,

tionately, for their basie éduca-
tion program.

are additional to the basic
program and which are paid for

Assessment Act. The amount of
money raised by the basic levy,
estimated for 1978 at 42.5 mills,
is the share of the cost of the

ly for each school. In
addition, one instructional unit
is granted for the school itself.
Value of Unit

The value of the instruc-
tional unit is arrived at by
dividing the total provincial
operating costs for the previous
year by the total number of
instructional units for the pre-
vious year.

‘Thus the dollar value of the
1978 instructional unit is the
total 1977 operating costs di-
vided by the number of in-

structional units calculated for ”

1977. For 1978 the instructional
unit value works out to $27,000.
The next step is to caleu-
late, in addition to the educa-
tion costs the cost of a basic
program for transportation and
auxiliary services in each dis-
trict. These additional costs
include health services, board-
ing allowances, costs of busing
pupils, and other transporta-
tion expenses including field
trips.

Always keep your goal crease clear.

If there's a loose puck in the crease, elther freeze
it or flip it out to the side — out of danger froma
roving opponent. Just a split second delay could
cost your team a goal and the game.

Attacking forwards have a way of getting inte ihe,
goal crease,
often deliberately to confuse the goalie and Snake
his job more difficult.

A goaltender has the right to check any oppo-
nent who's inside that crease. You can hit him as
hard as you like, so long as it's a legal check. But-
once a goalie leaves the crease he becomes like
every other player on the ice and can be checked in
any iegal way.

When you're in goal you can teach some of those
opposition attackers to respect your territory by
perce out a few stiff body checks. :

There is no peace'for thee save by renouncing thyself
