Some leat hers are on a three- year contracts which did not ex pire this year. Recommendation from the advisory committee In Board man and Irrlgon have not yet bevn made, and these will he considered at the March 8 meet- Ing. Counseling Discussed I onsUlorable discussion at the meeting centered on the coun selling program at Heppner High school and on the protHM- al to provide for an asistant county administrator In the l!Ht-67 school budget. Several parents were present to ask questions concerning the counselling program, stating the feeling that the Mated policy of counselling was not heing foi lowed. Supt. David Potter agreed with them on the policy, but said that he could not say whether the pnnvdure was being followed fully at the high school. The superintendent said that he was not aware that there was any difficulty In this area until he heard of It a day or two previously. "I don't hear these things un til they reach the boiling point," he said. He said that he would check into the matter and report on It. Assistant Eyed When the board considered the matter of putting aside some $1000 in the school budget In order to provide some adminis trator in the district to act as assistant county administrator when the superintendent was gone or 111. there was consider able discussion pro and con, While no one on the board spoke against the matter, expressions were heard from the audience in opposition. One feeling was that the $1000 was an unneeded extra expense to the taxpayer, that contracts of school administrators had been extended an extra month several years ago to help fill this administrative gap, and that the step might lead to a full time assistant. Feeling in favor was also ex pressed from the audience, clt ing the need for an acting head recently when Supt. Potter was confined to the hospital for a month, the need for more at tention to new Federal legl.sla tion that provides matching money for the distxict the need for more attention to supervis ion of construction of the Rlv erside school, and other mat ters. It was expressed that if more time were found to give administrative attention to the building program and the Fed eral legislation, savings to the district would more than repay for this administrative ass is tant L. E. Dick suggested that the board consider hiring a business manager to work with the su perintendent. pointing out that one man is now being used half- time in the district office on supplies and that a secretary Is also on the staff.
