Property Lease Eyed
By action of the board, aale
of a portion of the "George
property near the Heppner KI
ementary school was with
drawn. Previously. It had been
decided to offer an unused por
tion of the property for sale.
Supt. Potter said that he un

property and suggested that
representatives of the fair and
school hoards meet to discuss
the possibility of a lease to the

Channel clearance of Willow
Creek near lone High school
had been authorized at a pre
vious meeting up to a cost of
$2iXX. It was rciHrted that a
survey on the clearance has
been completed. Director Don
Mehlllgott moved that the
board pay for the clearance out
of this year's budget Instead of
that for l!H(i t7 and the motion
was carried. Supt. Potter said
that he believes that cost will
be considerably less than thnt
first estimated. A total of 1700
yards of dirt will need to be
moved In the project. This Is
expected to help eliminate
flooding at periods of high wa
ter. Previous floods have been
damaging to tne school property.

figured to go Into the 1966 07
budget but It will be about
$11,000, he said.

given. Several directors express
ed the feeling that the district
has rcsmmslblllty for providing
this education, and It was
agreed that the appropriate
committee will meet with par
ents to make recommendations
to the board.
Suggested guidelines for ad
visory committees were pre
sented In a mimeographed re
port. These would establish pro
cedures on meetings, building
maintenance, recommendations
on teaching stajf, hearing of
grievances and other matters.
These were a composite of find
ings of all advisory committees.
Bob Rletmann, chairman of a
committee to work out guide
lines for use of school buildings
for non -school groups, present
ed a report. It was auggested
that some groups, such as Boy
Scouts, 4 II clubs, county court,
ITA, state, county and nation
al elections, and home exten
sion units, Iks given use of
the buildings without charge.
"Anv local community group
Is urged to make use of the
school facilities when the use
does not conflict with use of
the building for school purMis
es and school activities," the
report said,
Keouests for use of buildings
should be directed to the local
school administrator and from
him. to the advisory committee.
When kitchen facilities are
used, a charge of $5 per func-
turn vi-utt MiiiLi;ti4l Other
charges: Use of gymnasium, $.1
per function; cafeteria. $J er
(unction; kitchen personnel.
$1.50 per hour; custodial per
sonnel, $2 per hour.
Both sets of guidelines were
adopted bv the board.
Kietmann said that charges
were figured on a "break-even"
basis fur the district.
Book Policy Said Needed
Supt. Potter pointed out the
need fr a library book selec
tion policy, stating that an ad
ministrator In another Oregon
district was recently "crucified"
because of a book found in a
school library that was divin
ed unfit for reading by the stu
dents. The superintendent said
that the board Is legally re
son.Hible for selection of print
ed materials. Copies of recom
mendations will be sent to all
board members for considera
tion and further action.
It was reported that specifi
cations for teucher houses au
thorized by the board are being
drawn and that the housing
committee will need to meet
again soon. One Is to be con
structed at Boardman and
another Is being considered for
lone.
Supt. Potter complimented
Tolar on an excellent report on
the year' work at A. ('. Ilough
ton school, and he reported on
a Small High School Improve
ment Conference In Kugene last
week. Several from this district
attended.
"One thing we learned Is that
we are not alone In needing
and holding teachers." he said.
Many districts are having sim
ilar problems as well as diffi
culties In passing budgets and
other problems, he reported.
II v action of the board, next
regular meeting will be chang
ed to a Monday night and will
be on July 11.
Chairman Haueh concluded
the meeting by stating that he
has two objectives In mind for
the coming year: 1. To do more
work towards vocational train
ing. 2. To study the rising
teacher costs.
