Verne Duncan is his total inability to work with the legislature ” The result, he said, is that education was cut in the 1980 special session and cut ‘ drastical ly" in the 1981 regular session Basic school support has fallen to 33 percnt, Monroe said, and the ef fect isn't likely to set well with taxpayers “ When you cut basic school sup port. you're raising property taxes,’ Monroe said The rise in property taxes has come about because of “ great cuts in state and federal money,” he said. * The superintendent ought to be the state's number one advocate for public education,'' the non partisan candidate said “ He ought to be the number one spokesman for public education and he ought to have a record of being effective with the state Legislature " Monroe, a high school teacher for 17 years, said his record in the Legislature as an advocate of responsible school financing and establishing educational polfcy would serve him well as head of the 400-person State Department of Education The biggest issue in the coming campaign is the low level of state support which increases the pro perty taxes, Monroe said A more stable funding source is needed to decrease reliance on the property tax method, he added When it was established, Monroe said, the intent of the legislature was to make basic school support pay for 50 percent of state schools' funding He call ed that “an appropriate goal ” However, he said, there are now only four states that provide less school support than Oregon In light of the budgetary pro blems, he said, “ the districts need the tools to do a more cost- effective educational job ” Monroe advocates independent state auditors who could analyze local school budgets, explain the process to local school boards and help them cut excesses "Our goal should always be the highest quality education for the lowest amount of dollars," he said An improved cooperation bet ween community college districts and local high schools could make savings, Monroe said “ We ab solutely have to do a better job in technical and vocational educa tion in this state ” Shared campuses and advanced education for high school students are two other goals Monroe says could be realized by greater coorperation Monroe wants to improve pro M e.n identification in ea rly c.vmentary years to “ start off with a positive thrust ” That, he said, could help schools offer alternatives for the 33 percent of Oregon high school students who drop out Monroe, 39, lives in Portland with his wife and iQ-year-old son.
