Tuition Costs t is Not Adequate, Lebanon Feels LEBANON, March ll-(Special) Patrons and members of the school boards of districts surrounding Lebanon 'attended the meeting to which, they were invited by' the local school authorities! to discuss the crowded conditions of the local schools which have led to the town school board considering re fusing admission to the student from outside the town district. J. W. King, superintendent, gave in some detail an outline of condi tions which have been getting worse each season. The Lebanon, high school, equip ped for care of 350 students is now enrolling about 600, he said. Approximately; half of f these stu dents coroe from outside of town, their own districts paying as tui tioiv a sum based on only opera tional costs plus a small deprecia tion percentage. Additional class rooms and equipment. Sunder the present set up, would be borne entirely by the town district. That the community considers this an unfair load since a half of the students dome from outside of the district. To put the cost of con struct! on on those whop share the services of the school plant would mean that the school;; territory would hae to be reorganized eith er as a large consolidated district or as a union high school district. Dr. C. . Huffaker of the de partment of education of the state universifyj, a recognized; authority on secondary school matters, hous ing and equipment as well as courses of study, led thejdiscussion and stated the results of; his recent study of j Lebanon school condi tions. I t I Reorganization for all school purposes would, he stated, afford large savngs in buying and ad ministration.. Consolidation seems from experience elsewhere in the state, to be more economical than union high schools. Thef main ob jections to consolidated schools has been transportation 'of small chil dren to schools at a distance. Now, Dr. Huffaker said, the tendency is to leave the neighborhood schools asl they are for jbeginners, transporting only the older chil dren to the central school. Dr. Huffaker and local school officials agreed that the problem is bound fto become more acute as the increase in the lumber in dustry hefre will continue to at tract families to the growing com munity. While no action was tak en at this first meeting it was agreed that other meetings will be held to consider steps to be taken to meet the difficulty.
