Board reverses March decision

Vancouver cest of $6.39 and a provincial average of $6.58.

The board also reversed a deci- sion made in March to give prefer- ence to West Vancouver taxpayers and the parenis of students during the question periods that precede or follow board meetings.

‘The éziginal decision was partic~ ularly relevant to one Vancouver resident who regularly attends board meetings and asks numerous ques- tions. Haycock, who sponsored the original motion, cast the only vote against reversing the policy.

For the 1994-95 school year, the combined total revenues of North Vancouver School District 44 and

West Vancouver School District 45 will surpass the $135 mill’on mark — almost completely funded by B.C. taxpayers.

That equates to more than $5,900 for every North Shore student in the public school system and the two school districts receive less per pupil than most districts in the province.

Some private schools receive partial funding from the govern- ment. Tuition can be as high es $5,000 for a 10-month school year.

However, because private schools do not have to meet pupil/teacher ratio restrictions applied in the public school system and their administration is smaller, more money reaches the classroom in the private school system.
