Abbott was fired from North Saanich junior secon- dary school for obtaining hundreds of thousands of ex- tra dollars for his school on the Saanich peninsula near Victoria during the past sev- eral years. In a deceptively simple scheme, Abbott kept stu- dents on his school register who weren't actually attend- ing the school. That meant the school got much more money than it was entitled to — perhaps as much as $400,000 over a five-year period. An arbitration board chaired by Vancouver lawyer Cumming has upheld a by the Saanich school board to dismiss Ab- bott for violations of the Shoot Act, Because of what it called the gravity of the offence, the board refused to agree with Abbott's lawyers, Bob Higin- botham and Jeff.Green, that he should be allowed to re- main-in the system as a classroom teacher. At least one other person in the school was disciplined. Those involved refuse to speak publicly about the case, but it is believed that Abbott simply did not re- move from the register the names of students who left the school. The students stayed on the register until they would nofmally have graduated — a period that could last from a couple of months to 2" years. The number of pupils who stayed on the register this way soon began to add up. There were an extra two or Answer to Sunday Crossword Puzzle No. 85 Sz] BS] — >=! CINDER!

The number of teachers and amount of money as- signed to each school by the school board are determined by the number of pupils on the register so extra money was given to the sclrool. Everyone agrees that Ab- bott made no personal gain from the deception — the money was spent on extra supplies and more teachers. The scheme was so suc- cessful that Abbott was once given two portable class- rooms because his school was apparently over-crowded. The situation only tame to light this Septeniber when the number of students grad- uating from North Saanich to Parklands high school was much smaller than predicted. Parklands school officials couldn’t account for the dis- crepancy and began asking’ questions about the missing students. Despite repeated efforts, Abbott was not available for comment. School board officials now admit that principals had too much unchecked authority over school records. A system of checks and bal- ances has been implemented and the Ministry of Edu cation has sent ‘memos to all school districts asking them to verify enrolment figures. ferry w ciating. Cremation.
