The Morrow County School
Board M onday evening,
November 14, voted to submit
a pared down capital improve
ment levy to the voters in the
March 1995 election.
Board members cut over $2
million from a $15,585,000 bond
levy that was rejected in March,
and by 59 votes in September
of this year. The $13,290,000
bond levy is basically the same
as the previous levy concerning
new classroom construction
and remodeling, with two big
exceptions-a $1,275,000 gym
nasium at Riverside High
School in Boardman and a
$1,020,000 art, music, cafeteria
and gym facility at Heppner
Elementary School have been
slashed. Other cuts include
$400,000 for lockers and a
weight room at RHS; $110,000
for restrooms at RHS; a $22,000
greenhouse at Heppner High
School; $15,500 each for trash
compactors at A.C.Houghton
Elementary in Irrigon, Heppner
High School and lone High
School; $7,690 each for balers
at A.C.Houghton, HHS, and
IHS; recycle bins at $5,000 each
for A.C.Houghton, Columbia
Junior High, HHS, Heppner
Elementary and IHS.
However the costs of some
projects w ere increased
because of the lapse of time bet
ween the initial estimates and
the projected completion dates.
The board had also con
sidered several other bond
issue options: option B, which
would be the same as option A,
but w ithout the Columbia
Junior High roof and floor pro
jects which have already been
completed with contingency
and general funds; and option
C, which would put four dif
ferent bond issues before the
voters. Measure 1 would be for
classroom construction, re
modeling, American Disabil
ities requirements and asbestos
abatement; measure 2 would
be for maintenance and repair
only; measure 3 for district
wide technology and com
munication; and measure 4 for
gyttmasium construction at
H ejspner E lem entary and
Riverside.
In other business, the board:
-rejected a proposal for an ad
ditional teacher inservice day to
be scheduled on Thursday,
Dec. 15, so that teachers could
hear a special speaker who is
an authority on assessment of
the CIM, or certificate of initial
mastery and, CAM, the cer
tificate of advanced mastery.
CIM and CAM are part of the
sta te 's new program , the
Educational Act for the 21st
Century, which is in the pro
cess of implementation and is
to be implemented fully for the
class of 2000. To achieve the
CIM, students must demon
strate that they have mastered
certain academic benchmarks.
cu ts
bond
Bill Doherty, one of five
board members who voted
against granting the additional
inservice day, argued that with
the four-day week, the student
should not have any more
reductions in classroom time.
"The system is for the stu
dent," said Doherty. "The stu
dent is getting shorted."
Board members Scott Bauska
and Gary Frederickson voted in
favor of th e ad d itio n al
inservice.
Superintendent Chuck Starr
had suggested that the day
prior to the inservice would be
a fully instructional day, with
no Christmas parties, to accom
modate the additional lost day.
-approved a request on be
half of the HHS senior class for
approval of a drug and alcohol

-approved a request to re

no cost to the district;

Birds topic of garden club
"Feeding O ur Feathered
F rien d s" was the subject
presented by Eva Lou Greiner,
State Bird chairm an, and
member of the Condon Garden
Club, at the Nov. 9 lone
Garden club meeting.
The question as to whether
people need to feed the birds.
Probably they would survive
except in severe weather but
people enjoy watching birds so
they try to attract them to their
yards, was the conclusion.
Birds will eat almost any kind
of seeds, fruits, suet and bread
products. Clean feeders and
plenty of water are essential.
Interesting pulications shown
included "W ild Bird W at
chers," magazine and "Dick E.
Bird N ew s".
Plans for the OFGC state con
vention to be held in Pendleton
in 1995 were discussed. Guests
for the day were Elaine Belts,
Blue Mt. Dist. 10 director of
Pendleton, Roberta Bowers of
Pendleton and Eva Lou Greiner
of Condon.
