August I. ltS$ MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVK Oregon Schools Salem (U.R) Oregon schools have -a high rating, according to Donald A. Emerson, assistant state superintendent in charge of supervision and instruction in the state school system. Of 388 elementary schools visited and evaluated by super visors of the State Department of Education in the past school year, 92 per cent were rated as standard or conditionally stand ard. The basic school support act passed by the 1047 Legislature placed responsibility on the state department of education to ex amine and evaluate schools of Oregon to determine their eli gibility to receive benefits from the basic school support fund. Ratings Explained Of 95 high schools visited, 87.2 per cent were rated as standard or conditionally stand ard. Emerson said the ratings for school are standard, condi tionally standard, standard with advice or non-standard. Only five per cent of the grade schools and 3.2 per cent of the high schools were rated as non-standard. Since a school rated as non standard is not eligible to re ceive basic school support funds, jsmerson said every effort is made by local school authorities, with the aid of state supervisors to earn better status. . Improvement Plans Adopted Several schools rated have not yet attained standard status, Emerson said, but have adopted plans of improvements that will, when completed make them fully standard. Meanwhile, they are designated as conditionally standard, a temporary status. , Other schools that come as near to complete standardization as present circumstances allow but have not yet made plans for a fully standard school, are rated as standard with advice. The high percentage of standard schools in Oregon has been achieved despite a rapid growth in school population. Emerson said: "The rate of increase in popu lation has been so great in some districts that their financial con dition will not permit them to keep abreast of current needs. However, a majority of such districts have a program of im provements that is permitting them to advance at a reasonable rate toward the goal of complete standardization, and are rated High Rate conditionally 'standard or stand ard with advice." Mora Schools Standard . A total of 117 grade schools were rated as standard in the past school year compared with 89 the previous school year. But high schools did not fare so well. A total of 54 high schools won standard rating during the last school year, compared with 99 in the 1951-52 school year. Emerson said the job of visit ing and evaluating schools made it impossible to cover the entire stae with a single visit to each school oftener than in each three-year period.
