Approximatley 100 parents
and teachers attended tne lorum
meeting of the Roosevelt P.-T.A.
at the school Thursday night
when extensive discussion of
school Improvement plans was
heard. Mrs. Ivan Davles, presi
dent of Junior High P.-T.A., re
ported briefly on a recent meet
ing of her group where school
needs were discussed. She point
ed out that the purpose of P.-T.A.
is to cooperate with the school
superintendent, board and teach
ers, and not to criticize.
Mrs. J. W. Barnard, P.-T.A.
president, who presided, intro
duced Otto Frohnmayer who act
ed as moderator. The latter call
ed on Frank Bash, Dr. C. G. Vah
Valzah, K. G. Denman and Dr.
A. E. Merkel who made up the
panel.
Frohnmayer told of a state
statute prohibiting spending in
excess of six per cent of assessed
valuation, which limits bond
issues. Bash, suggested a long
term view in school improve
ment, including latest type light
ing, heating and construction
phases. VanValzah urged no let
down in teaching standards with
better salaries, sick leave and
pension provisions.
Denman declared that broken
homes resulting from war con
ditions have put more respon
sibility on teachers and neigh
borhood groups in assisting chil
dren to develop moral values
and good citizenship. He also sug
gested an expanded physical de
velopment program for the
schools to include greater num
bers. Dr. Merkel told what could be
done toward a more thorough
regular physical examination
and remarked that while the hot
lunch program was most bene
ficial to the children it could be
improved by employing a dietic
ian who . could plan balanced
school lunches.
During the social hour there
was further discussion among
members present, opinions voic
ed including advocacy of more
discussion groups to consider
school problems, promotion of
interest in a bond issue for
school improvement and actively
interested school board mem
bers. Miss Mabel Nanscn, in the ab
sence of Mrs. Hamilton who was
111, directed the Roosevelt glee
club in several numbers. Host
esses were mothers from the
rooms of Mrs. Maxwell and Mrs.
Hill.
