I have serv ed on the Budget Committee for the Morrow County School District I have visited with many voters who have valid concerns over School District Policy I realize that this year's budget may not address all of their concerns I would tike to take this opportunity to explain why. Voting no. on a school budget on ly tells the committee that you do not like the budget Voting no does not say cut sports, close small schools, reduce transportation, curtail hot lunch programs or cut salaries These aspects o f education arc all pan o f existing school district policy I f you disagree with the district's policy, the place to change it is in discussion w ith the school hoard or with the administrators o f our schools. Voting no may be the easiest way o f saying you disagree with existing policies Voting no. without standing up and saying why or without voicing a concern in a punicular area, w ill only leave those in charge o f running our schools * l- . » 1 .- -*\ ! - «’• * 1 * h f'-fi A ... y + *' i >r ' * v - > r r».-* i -V ..

I 1 S. M guessing In formulating this year's budget, we tried to offer all o f the existing policy requirements in the most economic way possible and I feel we succeeded Voters, must realize that the schools electric bills continue to rise, insurance premiums arc higher, just like their own, along with other areas A ll expenses must be includ cd in the budget The majority o f these expenses can not he cut, without changing district policy, breaking contracts or breaking the law. The budget committee did not feel they could lake it upon themselves to change school district policy without more community input Although this year's budget is higher than last year's I feel the quality o f education our children receive, w ill be lower. Cuts were made in areas where they could he. in order to make up for increases where we had no say It is now too late for a no vote lo change school district policy this year A no vote now, w ill only decrease the quality o f education futhcr I am sure that this year's budget w ill not be acceptable to every one in the district We must realize lhat what one individual views as fat. another pervin may view as meal I feel we have taken all of the fat out 217 N .

I feci as a former Mur row County School Board Member, I am writing this letter to give my support to both (the Board Members and Budget Committee Having worked on both I realize the many. many hours o f giving of their time freely to present a reasonable budget and each time it is voted down That means that many more hours and more expense i t involved in publishing, printing ballots and h ir ing clerks lo work on the election hoard Some o f the issues lhai have been questioned such as P E , Band. Music, Art, Counselors and Special Ed Classes, our local hoard has no control over These classes arc stale requirements They are required for a school to receive their accredita lion Classes such as Chapter I and Migrant Ed Classes are not sup ported by local taxes, they are Federally funded and are also requirements. There are many expenses such as supplies for the upkeep o f the buildings, textbooks (which always have a price increase each year), electricity, water and fuel for the buses arc items the School Board has no control over the increase o f the cost The items are very necessary lo run a school. Let's not short change our children Let's get out and support our schools. Board Members and Budget members I f you have a grievance about schools, teachers, administrators or Board members at lend the meetings and voice your concerns, but please don't let this cause problems for our students and schools (s> Ralph Skouho Former School Board Member Boardman * White t Red Rock * Stepping Stones * Bark * Lawn Ornaments PETTYJOHN'S Farm & Builders Supply 676-9157 or 676-5001 In the Service The Morrow County C lerk's Of- ficc at the Morrow County Cour I sncr CpI C ra i* Miles thouse in Heppner reports issuing a Marine lance CpI Craig A marriage license to the following: Miles, son o f Dexter M and C or Ricky Jerald Rea. 27. and Kristi ine M Miles of Heppner. has been l^ec l.ankford, 21. hothot Heppner awarded a Meritorwms Mast while serving with 3rd Marine Division, on Okinawa A Meritorious Mast is an official recognition from a Marine's com The District Attorney s Office at manding officer for superior in dividual performance It i\ issued in the Morrow County Courthouse in Heppner reports that W illiam Glenn the form o f a bulletin published Cherry, Jr . 56.
