March 26,1982 Page 5 Spilyay Tymoo Simnasho School— Future looks bleak Simnasho School is once again on the 509-J budget chopping block. Speaking at the district budget meeting on M arch 16 superintendent Darrel Wright stated, “The Simnasho School elimination is the only administrative- approved decision,” so far, “requiring approval of the board, yet.” Along with elimination of Simnasho school ($62,369), other suggested cuts include reducing personnel in the m aintenance and laundry d e p a r tm e n ts ($ 3 7 ,2 8 8 ), department heads ($10,544), 3.5 te a c h in g p o s itio n s ($92,307), and one adminsitra- tive position ($36,943). Other reductions proposed by the budget committee might be reorganization of cafeteria services ($49,473), reorganiza tion of garbage collection services ($2,972), and reduction of building modification funds ($15,000) s According to the budget committee report, the basic school fund estimates are lower than last year. The 1982-83 estim ate is $3,130,262, a decrease of $88,043 from last year. P.L. 874 funds have been reduced by $127,788. Federal Forest fees are reduced by $30,435. The result is a non-tax revenue of $4,719,434 which is $468,463 less than the current year’s estimated revenues. Reinstatement of the sports program has been made “in direct response to the positive support of the parents of s tu d e n t a th le te s , T he Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and the Buff Booster C lub,” according to the committee report. The p ro p o se d b u d g et contains a total of $6,998,630 in expenditures. The revenue Nearing Completion estimates are $4,719,434.

Central Oregon Community College Community Education Classes Spring 1982 COCC levy election March 30 In a bold move to cut expenses for the next fiscal y e a r , C e n t r a l O re g o n Community College Board members voted unanimously to eliminate intercollegiate sports at COCC beginning July 1, 1982. The physical well-being of students will be met with a new lifetime fitness: approach to health and physical activities, while students wishing to compete, may do so through the Club Sports system begun last year. In another move to meet the economic crunch, the Board cut a faculty position in philosphy; a faculty/coaching position will also be cut related to the change in athletics. Two administrative positions have also been removed from the 1982-83 budget which will com e b e fo re v o te rs on Tuesday, March 30. COCC does not have a tax base to fund yearly operation of its district programs which reach Central Oregonians in LaPine, Sunriver, Redmond, Sisters, Prineville, Madras and Warm Springs. Operations are financed by approximately 20 percent state aid (down from 26 percent last year), 25 percent from student tuition and fees and 55 percent from local property taxes. An “A” levy request of $4.3 million will be eligible for property tax relief should voters approve it on March 30. This means that up to 30 percent of the local tax approved will be financed by the State of Oregon. The amount of the “B” levy request of $302,000 is the anticipated reduction in state support in addition to the $500,000 cut last year by the state. If the state increases College support, this levy amount will be reduced or eliminated to the extent of state funding, according to COCC President Fred Boyle. In addition to budget cuts, the College has raised tuition by 12 percent and will increase residence hall rates to help keep pace with rising costs, Boyle added.
