PAGE EIGHT THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND. OREGON MONDAY. APRIL 21. 1947 Survey of Bend School District (Following Is the third Install ment of the Bend school survey. The distribution of elementary pupil in the district was dis cussed in the final part of the Sat urday Installment P. By Dr. C. U Huffakcr I'ruOwor of Ktluralion tlntvrrtllv of Or-R'n Special attention is directed to the problems of Area A. In 1924 this urea contained 34 per cent of nil elementary school children of the district. In 1329 the percent orc had decreased to 28 and, In 1946, had lost an additional 7 per cent. In other words, this parti cular area has a declining school population, bo' h actually and in comparison with the school popu lation of the entire district. It does, however, contrtin 21 per cent of the children enrolled In the first eight grades. It is practical ly Impossible that this area, with in the foreseeable future, will lose all or even a majority of the pu pils. Insofar as school travel Ss concerned, this area is an island, bounded on the east and south by the railroad, there holnR few places where this railinad can he crossed. It is also bounded on the south by the industrial area, on the north by the business dis trict, and on the west by the IVs chutes river. It is apparent that for many years to come the chil dren who live in this area, at least the younger age groups, must, of necessity, be educated in the area. the older ones. So long as these pupils continue In school, the at tendance In the school will In crease, provided the birth rate re mains at its present level. In con nx:tion with the birth rate, it should he pointed out that th schools haw not ye enrolled anv of the so-called "war h:ib!es." Th first croup of these will enter school in the fall of 1947. The writer is not informed about the birth rate in the Bend school dis trict. Wi'hln the last week, a news dispatch stated that the birth rate in Oregon was at an all time hogh for the first three months of 19-17. The statement Recent Trends An analysis of the 1940 school i was also made that the previous census indicated a decreasing i lugh had been in 1940 and that school population, but analyses of previous census reports like wise indicate that the Bend dis trict does not always follow trends that seem to be prominent. There were, of course, severe dis locations of population which oc curred during the war years. It is desirable, on account of this fact, to study the recent years somewhat in detail. Kor that reason, the average daily attend ance of the district by schools has been compiled into Table 6.

It will be noted" from Table 6 that an expected decrease in school attendance occurred, the low point being reached in 1943 44. Since that time there has been an increase, the largest in crease being during the present year. This last statement should be qualified to the effect that the October report month is taken as representative of the year 1946-47 and may, or may not, be fully representative. There are several indications that the district will continue its growth. If the age-grade table for October, 1946, is analyzed, it will be found that the combined grades 1, 2 and 3 enroll almost 150 more pupils than the total number of pupils in grades 6, 7 and 8. It will also be recalled in connection with this that the cen i sus pattern for 1945 showed a much high proportion of the pu- "DEAR CAT" TRACTORS PLOW CULTIVATE 'HARROW DISK SCRAPE AND GRADE If At CAM' H.

There is every indication that the Bend schools should grow. It should ho kept in mind, however, that as far as data are available, the Bend district fails at times to conform to established traits. It Is safe, however, to conclude that the schools will continue to grow so long as the economy of the area continues at or near its pres ent level. As was indicated before, the school district is going to have to make a far-reaching decision. Since there is no way of predict ing the future economy level of this area, the school board, which is close to the situation, will have to make some decision as to the probable future growth. It was pointed out before that, if the school board decides to meet the peak load of pupils, the time will probably come, (if history re- i1 10 Teachers Quit; !Offer.U Rejected j Ansonia.
