Tax Levy Wins j
Favor of PT-A
i
At Englewood
The Salem school board's pro
posal for levying $135,649, which
will be on the ballot next Wed
nesday at the special school dist
rict election, to be held at the
School district office, 460 N. High
St, from 2 to 7 pjn won the
unanimous endorsement of the
Englewood Parent-Teacher association.
The association pointed out that
the actual new tax would be only
about $69,000, since $67,000 of
the amount would be contributed
by the state.
The $67,000 would be used to
continue for one more year the
$300 bonus for each teacher to
equalize salaries. This was put
nto effect at a special election
held last year.
The association said that unless
the proposal wins approval at the
election, then vital school func
tions will have to be curtailed or
eliminated, i
It was pointed out by the PTA
that the school district Is requir
ed by the legislature to spend the
new money, so that if the proposal
)s rejected the money would have
to be spent anyway and other
School functions stopped.
