I We Believe In Consolidation We believe in the consolidation of the schools, liecause one- room schools are inferior to graded schools. Pupils cannot prop erly study while other classes are continually reciting different subjects. If there are many |iupilv the teacher cannot take enough time with individuals of all grade» «nd ages; and if there are just a few. pupils do not take as much interest and do not have the same advantages as in lai ger schools Scio is very much interested in the pupils outside of the district. I»ecau»e three out of every five in the High School come from the outside districts and money tor t c expense of educat ing them crime* from the county treasury to the amount of almut $2400 each year. The ¡wviplc outsNe of the district are inter ested in Scio I mk * u -. v they must have a place close to send their children to High SchcaJ.

With a large numlicr of pupils much more mterv-t is taken in school and bet ter equipment for health is afford« d through physical training and all athletics. The Scio school district's total property valuation is $100,- 000 to $4,000,000 less than in other pi.«cv* in the county, there fore the taxpayer has much higher taxr in projxirtion to school ei|»en<litutcs. Whether the new district i» .i two million dollar district or a million dollar district, th«- school consolidation would lower the ratio of tunes to rx|M-nditurrs. Our standard school woulil I t praised far .«n«l wide and supported by all. Our district, by the pr«i|XT management, woukl Lcioine one of the largest in the county.
