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.
