Rural School District
Budgets Talked Today
representatives of nine rural
school districts were scheduled
to hold hearings today with the
county rural school board to
reach final agreements on pro
posed budgets for the 1950-51
school year. When all budgeted
items are cleared at the hearings,
the individual budgets will be
combined Into one rural school
budget for the county, and will
be covered by an equalized
county tax levy in all of the
rural districts.
A budget election must be held
later since the budget will in
evitably exceed the six per cent
limitation, due to the outmoded
tax base set for the district,
school officials said.
Hearings were-, being held In
the county school superintend
ents office today for laient,
Phoenix, Kenwood. Butte Falls,
Griffin Creek, Howard,' Pros
pect, Jacksonville and West Side
districts. Tomorrow the rural
school board will meet with
representatives from the Shady
Cove, Applegate, Oak Grove,
Rogue River, Ruch-Sterling and
Eagle Point districts.
Revote on Merger of
School Districts Set
The county school district
boundary board today set April
28 as the date for a re-vote on the
proposed consolidation of the
Little Applegate school district
with the Ruch-Sterling district.
Voters may cast ballots from 7
p.m. until 9 p.m. in the two
schoolhouses on that date.
Ruch-Sterling district now In
cludes the former Watkins,
Uniontown and Forest Creek
districts, which voted to merge
with the larger school at a re
cent consolidation election. Lit
tle Applegate residents turned
down the proposal at that time.
Petitions for a re-vote were fil
ed, since it was believed the ad
verse vote represented a mis
understanding of the problem
faced by the Little Applegate
school.
