Boardman's Early Dismissal
Principal Dan Daltoso reported
on tne early dismissal lor tne
last 8 weeks for one day a week
t Riverside High School. He
tid he felt it was helpful i
developing a working relation
between the teachers and pro
gram of the Junior high and sen
ior high. A philosophy of the
school district and the school
was discussed then a program
was developed for the Junior
High and the Senior High to
head the same way education
ally. An agreement on fundu
mental points was reached and
then they branched Into the
English program which was de
veloped along lines similar to
the new approach at Heppner
High School.
In Business Education the
classes will be completely indi
vidualized.
It was found that students in
Typing I and Typing II could
work very well together. Quali
fying tests show progress equal
to when they were separated.
The math program was struc
tured with the view of grouping
students according to what they
know rather than within a
grade. Grades 7-8-9 will be test
ed every week. As a basic con
cept is learned, the individual
goes for another concept.
Mr. Daltoso said that the 8
hours taken from school time
was instrumental in the teach
ers taking 20 extra hours of their
own time in working out the
program.
Announcements
The three graduations were
announced, the Primary election

School District Tax Base Election
ARDON AND PATTI LOCKYER,

ists and Evangelist, will be
the special guests of Assembly
of Cod Church at Heppner on
May 22, Friday, The Lockyers,

have a very interesting pre-1
This final news article, prior
to the tax base election next
Tuesday, will reflect on some of
the reasons for caning a lax
Base Election at this time.
It was the feeling of the
School Board members that the
school district Is now operating
on a very business like basis
with bids and price quotas be
ing taken on all major purch
ases and all expenditures oeing
accurately recorded on a daily
basis. This type of operation pro
vldes more for the money spent
and Indicates exactly where the
money Is being used
The school district has also
reduced teaching staff by five
teachers in the last two years.
The teacher-student ratlo In Moi
row County Is now very close to
the state average and reflects
the board"s philosophy to reduce
costs vherever possible without
harming the educational pro
gram.
This years budget received
careful scrutiny by all local ad
visory committee members as
well as budget committee mem-
l-ers. Over $30,000 of requested
funds were out before adoption
by tne budget committee. It was
the feeling of all involved that
the 1970-71 budget was a sound.
economical budget.
For reasons indicated above
Both the Portland School Dia
trlct budget and the Morrow
County budget are good examp
les of budgets that must be
drastically reduced to remain
within the 6 limitation. If
either budget required a vote on
funds beyond the 6 limitation,
both would be considerably
higher than they are now.
In summary, the school board
is asking that the voters afford
the school district the same op
portunlty that other Morrow
County taxing agencies have,
and that Is a realistic tax base
with a realistic Increase. This
will permit more realistic plan
nlng by those who are best In
formed on the problems and op
erating costs of the school dis

ers the question of establishing
a new acnooi District Tax Base.
There are people who contend
that a tax base plus 6 is more
than is needed and they are re
luctant to approve the new. tax
base because they feel that the
entire b will be used each
year when it is not necessary.
Still others are reluctant to ap
prove a new tax base because
they feel that the 6 will not
meet inflation, and the rising
cost of education. These people
feel that the 6 will be the
maximum figure that school
ooards and budget committeps
win approve and this will re
sinci salary increases as wpll
as increases in other areas of
tne budget.
In looking at taxine 'agencies
mat operate within the 6 lim
itation, there is a clear indica
tion that every attempt is made
to operate within the funds
available and not to hold pW..
tions for funds beyond the 6
mimauon. mis concept is sup
ported by the fact that the ave
rage tax levy increase, in dis
tricts with a liveable tax base,
is considerably less than it is
in districts with an unrealistic
tax base.
