M1TTEE US REPORT
Argue That an Expenditure Would
Bring Results
FIQLRE WOULD REPAV IN 8 YEARS
Report is Complete and well Worth
1 Careful Reading by All
The Parent-Teacher Association
president recently appointed a
committee consisting ot Dr. J. 0.
Robb. Mrs. Chas. E. Wells and
Mts. J. W. Bailey to report on
the feasibility of an expenditure
to build an addition to the High
School for the purpose of accom
modating a larger student body
to be recruited lor tne uign
School course from the county at
large. .mm
Their report follows:
THE HIGH SCHOOL PROBLEM
statement of the Committee of the
Parent-Teachers Association
The State law uow provides that
any scholar eligible to High School in-
st ruction. resiuiUK m any iuduiu
where uo high school is maintained.
may attend high Bchool at such other
place as they may elect, either within
the county where they reside, or other
wise, and that the county in which
said scholar resides shall pay the
costs ot such high school tuition and
schooling to the school district fur
uishiiiK the same.
While it Is not the object of this
statement to discuss the details ot
this law. yet we have no hesitancy in
saying, that any law which makes it
easier for the boys and girls on the
farms of Oregon to secure the same
high school education that their town
and city cousins receive, is a goou law,
fundamentally .and will be permanent
Anyway we have the law. Its result
has been, naturally, to largely Increase
the hiKh school enrollment. I his
county, we are .informed, has recently
paid the 1'ortlaiid sehoolssouie $7U0u
for the tuition ot pupils trom Washing
ton County for the past year.
The Hillsboro School District is now
confronted with a business problem
Our high school facilities are now
crowded to the limit. We have a pres
ent eighth grade class numbering 68
which will euler high school next year
as against a graduating class of 24.
probable net increase of over 40 from
our own district. Last year we had 04
high school pupils from outside the
district this-year nearly a hundred
will be enrolled before the close of the
term.
Next year, every indication Is that
we will have 15U high school pupils
from outside the district. Without
mo.e room and facilities we cannot
care for them ,and will have to turn
thorn away to Portland, Forest Grove,
Ui-avertoii or elsewhere. The question
lor us to decide is, what is best;
add to our high school equipment, by
enlargement of the building at a cost
of twelve to fourteen thousand dollars
so as to care for our own and outside
pupils for next year, or care for what
we can besides our own, and turn
away the rest.
This committee has been asked by
the Parent-Teachers' Association
examine into the matter and report
the facts. We herewith present the
figures you can draw your own con
elusions. If the comparisons we make
are more favorable to one contention
than the other, it is because the logic
of the figures seems so to indicate
to us.
Year 1915-16
Total enrollment IBS
Pupils In the district. 104
Pupils outside district
Total cost of high school $90G.(M)
liocelved from ontaido pupils 28xn fin
Ualance paid by district 6195.00
Year 1916-17
Total enrollment 200
Pupils from district 113
Pupils from outside
Total cost of high school $9400.00
Paid by outside pupils 4100.00
Paid by district 6300.00
A Btudy ot thttsa figures will show
the following facta: Last year, wtitlo
this district bad only 104 high school
pupils, it cost the district $t19b.00.
This year with 113 pupils the cost will
be nearly a thottsaud dollars loss. This
is due to the fact that the amount re
ceived from outside pupils Increased
about 11200, while the- cost of running
the school did not increase iu propor
tion. Why is this We fiud that a con
sidcrable portion ot the oxpeuso, such
as salaries of superintendent, Janitor,
priuclpal, cost ot fuel, litiht, repairs,
aud many other items, are about the
same, wueUier the enrollment ia 200
or 150. Moreover, we fiud that the
same corps ot teachers ate handling
the high school classes this year, that
handled them last, and to the best of
our Judgment, fully aa efficiently. The
only added expense this year as
against last, is that we have the full
time ot the musical instructor, as
against lialf time last year, which adds
about 400, but some ot this is oi l set
by reductions in other salaries.
In short, the teachers are liandliug
larger classes, which of course reduces
the cost per scholar.
Right here is the advantage ot the
large school. It cau give the same
courses and advantages as the small
school, at less cost per pupil, or more
advantages, aud a broader and more
valuable course ot instruction at the
same cost per pupil, as the small
school.
I'nder this law, where the county
pays the cost, . scholars are going
where they can get the best Instruc
tion, everything else being equal.
It follows theu, that the better aud
more complete school we have, uot
uly the better will our own childreu
be served and educated, but the great
er will be the Inducement for the out
side pupil to come to our school.
1K we waut them Let's see.
As we have seen from the figures.
the cost of the high school last year,
as, total $9075, collected from out
side pupils $:'SS0, cost to district $6195.
Now one ot two things must be true.
Cither the expense of running the
school would have to be reduced, or
else the taxpayers of this district
ould have bad to pay $9075, instead
of $6195.
This year, with a total cost ot $9400
ot which $4100 will come from the
outside, unless the running expense
ould have been nearly cut In half.
the taxpayers ot the district would
have been called upon for $4100 more.
Our investigation has couviuced us
that the running cost of the high
school could not be reduced over Jiuoo
to $1500 per year without practically
crippling its efficiency. 10 reduce it
that much would place it below the
grade ot high schools in smaller
towns. To reduce it three or tour
thousand dollars would simply mean
losing it
On the other hand, what is the re
sult ot the increase ot outside pupils?
As we have seen, the Increase this
year over last has Dad tne ellect 01
saving the district about $1200.
This Is further proven by the fact.
that notwithstanding an increase ot 20
per cent ot scholars in the district, and
notwithstanding the further fact that
provision is made tor applying $1000
to the sinking fund, our levy Is only
S mills as against 9 last year.
These seem to us to be unanswer
able facts.
Now let us consider the matter of
additional building, pro and con. First,
if we do not build this year, we will
probably be unable to care tor over 40
outside pupils next fall. Judging from
present classes, we will have enough
pupils in the district to bring the total.
with that many from outside, up to the
maximum ot 200.
Assuming that the costs for running
the school would be the same as this
year, the figures would be as follows,
in round number: Total cost, $9000;
paid by outside pupils, $1800; paid by
istrict, $7200. This ia nearly $2000
($1900) more than is paid by the dis
trict this year. There ia no place for
that $1900 to come from except from
the taxpayers, and that would require
little over one mill more than this
year, or 9H mills probably 9.
Moreover, it Is extremely probable
that iu the next year after, or at
longest by 1919, the present facilities
of our high school will be Insufficient
for our own children, AND WE
WOULD HAVE TO MAKE THE IM
PROVEMENT ANYWAY, AND DO
IT AT OUR OWN EXPENSE.
Now let us consider the result If
we make the necessary building ex
tensions. The cost will approximate
$14,000. About 8 mills on the district
valuation of $1,800,000. Let us as
sume that this were borrowed to be
repaid at the rate ot 1 mill and Inter
est per year, or in 8 years. The cost
would be about $2100 per annum tor
principal and Interest and at the end
of eight years the Improvement would
be paid for.
The question that will interest the
taxpayers of the district, is, who will
pay for it
We have seen what the cost would
be to us if we only took 40 outside
pupils next year. The portion of the
cost of the high school that would
have to be paid by the taxpayers of
the district would be as we have
shown, $7200.
If we make room for the outside
scholars, those In position to Judge
agree that we will have an attendance
of 150 from outside the district next
year. Some say more. Let us call it
125. Placing the local enrollment for
next year at 150 we will have a total
attendance ot 275. Let us assume
that we will have to add $1000 for
another course (though this would be
optional) and we have a total expense
of $10,000 for the high school. Of this
amount the outside pupils would pay
$4600 and the district $5400. Add the
$2100 annual charge to pay the cost of
the improvement In 8 years, and we
have $7500 as the net cost to the dis
trict for the year, as against $7200
cost to the district if we do not make
the addition to building, and do not
add another course of study. It is
clear, 1t seems to us, that if no im
provement In the course of study were
made, or if the proportion of pupils
coming from the outside were placed
at the number which Is most probable,
that the net cost to the district after
making the Improvement in buildings
would, by reason of the outside In
come, be less than If the added room
were not provided.
Unquestionably this Improvement
will be valuable to the district in
years to come. Eventually the Im
provement must be made. Ordinarily
all such Improvements must come en
itrely from the pockets of the tax
payer, in addition to the annual run
ning expense of the school.
Uy taking advantage of the existing
conditions, we can not only make the
hlph Bchool earn the cost of the im
provement, but so equip it that our
children will have advantages second
to none, while every scholar in Wash
ington County will deem it a privilege
to attend It.
The people of the smaller dlHtrlcts
are awakening to the advantages of
this law. The next two years will
so a great Increase In high school tin
rolltmmt. Hillsboro Is the logical high
school canter for a large portion of
the poopln of the county. With the
added room, aud a commercial cotirso,
which many boys and girls now wish
for but can't hope to got, our high
school would be the first Iu standing
lit the county and at less cost to the
taxpayers.
Without the facilities those outside
pupils will form connections with oth
er schools, we will pay our bills alone,
and hofore the eight years are gone
we will have to dig In our own pockets
to make additions, which, It made at
once, the school could be earning.
