Superintendent o f schools candidate says:
Schools need budgeting help Garden club meets at Boring
by DAN DILI.O N
The superintendent of public in
struction has to establish better
communication with the state
Legislature if school funding
hurdles are to be overcome, says
one candidate seeking the job
State Sen Hod Monroe, in San
dy last Thursday to meet with
parents in the Kelso School area,
told The Host. ‘ The greatest
failure with «incumbent! 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.
