We, the undersigned, legal and registered voters of the contiguous territory described herein, acting pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 341, Oregon Revised Statutes, do hereby respectfully petition and request that an Area Education District be formed of territory hereinafter described in the counties of Multnomah, Clack amas and Hood River, State of Fourth Unit Planned for St. Jude's Oregon. And we specifically re quest that the said territory be united and organized into an Area Education District for the purpose of establishing an education cen ter or community college, in the manner provided by law. The said territory is situated in the coun ties of Multnomah, Clackamas and Hood River and is more particu larly described as follows, to-wit: All of the territory in the Coun ty of Multnomah, County of Hood River, and the County of Clacka mas, State of Oregon, which is in cluded within the boundaries of any one of following political sub divisions of the State of Oregon: Districts Included are: Park rose, David Douglas, Reynolds, Bonneville, Corbett, Gresham Union High, Sandy Union High, and Cascade Locks—as these boundaries exist on Nov. 1, 1964. Sandy Justice of the Peace, Judge George Howeller, was the first to sign. "I am delighted to sign this Pe tition,” he told the Post. “The establishment of a Community Col lege District east of Portland would be of immeasurable value to this area, and it would enable many of our young folks to further their education beyond high school. Ap proximately two-thirds of our high school graduates, for one reason or another, are unable to get a post high school education, despite the fact that such an education is becoming Increasingly urgent In this age of science and technolo- gy-’’ "If we do not get behind this movement to establish aCommun- ity College for this area, we may one day find ourselves in a Com munity College District far less advantageous to us. I therefore urge every citizen to Inform him self on this matter and sign this Petition.” "The circulation of this petition to form an Education District is the first major, and very big step, forward towards a Community Col lege to serve the Sandy Hood-Land area,” explained Captain I. S. Hartman, who is sponsored by the Sandy Area Chamber of Commerce as a member of the Executive Committee of the proposed Ed- ucatlon Districts. ‘•This petition is our means of signifying to the State Board of Education and our Legislature that we want such a college and that we are prepared to support one from a financial and administra tive standpoint,” Hartman said. "The Community College is a unique educational institution. It Is administered by the commun ity for all the people of the com- munitys it serves. It provides the courses that best serve the needs of the citizens in its area.” Asked why the Sandy area had withdrawn from the proposed Clackamas Community College District now In about the same stage of formation, Hartman ex plained that "the geographical sit uation and transportation trends In the area made association with the East Multnomah county groups more realistic from the stand point of economics and accessibil ity. “Area education Districts are completely separate and taxed as such entirely apart from county lines,” he explained. “We want to make access to the eventual campus as easy and convenient as possible.” He said, “Some anticipated courses will require extensive shop and laboratory facilities. Oth ers will require only classroom space. Our established high schools and Industrial plants have facilities which can be utilized as soon as the Education District is established. In due course a central campus site should be se lected and facilities developed for day time courses.” Oregon’s Lane County voted 5 to 1 for an Education District this summer. The District is now as suming control over a vocational Technical school already estab lished in the area, but it is also providing courses in eight other sites within the District. Grand Council Fire to Honor Camp Fire Girls California now has 73 commun ity colleges In operation and 29 more are in the process of being formed. Oregon, which did not make a substantial effort in this line until 1959 now has eight com munity colleges (Including Lane County). Photographer Opens Studio School Immunization Survey Shows 'Favorable' Results OPENING ” Some other areas within theState are more advanced with their plans for formation of Education Districts, but with active commun ity support, we can be in a position to offer limited courses within the year,” Hartman reported.
