As a guest of the Board, Teresa Kerber, an Oc cupational Education in structor at John A. Holmes High School, gave a com puter demonstration as another of the “Good Things” which are taking place in the school system this year. Started as a new occupational program this fall, at present instruction in the use of seven computers and three line printers with accessories is being made available to Occupational Education II students at Holmes. Afternoon and night classes have drawn the interest of fifty-eight people in the community. The computers are being used to teach secretarial skills and word processing and to store documents. Class participants are becoming proficient in learning computer language, feeding in formation into the computer and giving computer commands.

Other models considered only worked independently. Calvin Winslow, the Edenton-Chowan Band Parents President ad dressed the Board during the Public Speaks. He referred to a letter recently sent to all members ex pressing the organization’s concern over lack of funds to allow for expansion of the program. Winslow requested that this concern be placed on next month’s Board agenda for con sideration. Stronger expressions of concern were voiced by A1 Everson, band parent. Everson implied that since the formation of the Band Parent’s group and its successful fund raising Pea nut Festival, the Board is letting others assume their financial responsibility in this area and that the band program is unfairly “get ting pushed aside” when it comes to money, which goest to “pet projects.” Everson requested that the Board review its band budget and cited several other grievances surrounding the program and Holmes High School in general. The Board approved several agenda items which affect students, teachers and the system as a whole: Upon recommendation and request of the Teacher Advisory Committee (TAC), any future days of school missed because of snow will be made up on Saturday of the week missed. Since the Tenure Law allows teachers to work only five days in one week, if more than one day in a given week is missed, it will come out of Easter vacation. The two days already missed will be made up Thursday and Friday of Easter Week. The local policy con cerning Access To Per sonnel Files was amended to legally allow the sharing of this information with the State Board of Education.

Access to records is needed to determine the reliability and validity of the evaluation instrument. With the adoption of a Resolution, the Board moved to support a proposal, offered by State Treasurer Harlan Boyles, which would call for an additional one cent statewide sales tax. Forty per cent of the revenue generated in each county would go toward the con struction of school facility, twenty per cent for county water and sewerage con struction and 40 per cent for the general needs of counties and cities. In other business, Board committees were appointed to begin the process of formulating the 1982-83 school budget and Dr. J. H.
