Approve Chang
The superintendents ap
proved a change of date for
the county teachers' institute,
which originally was schedul
ed Oct. 20. It now will be held
Nov. 10. The change was nec
essary because of a conflict
in dates with the state ele

dent insurance. They noted

ment in the county had risen

mation program with parents,
physicians, and school offic
ials in an effort to curb the
rising cost of students' insur
ance rates was believed effec
tive. Education Program
Bruce Hitt, assistant county
school superintendent, urged

start an education program on
school bus safety. He said that
unless people concerned, par
ents, school bus drivers, stu
dents and school officials,
were ever conscious of school
bus safety practices, serious
accidents might result.

iation set up a committee to
study the Flesher report,
which is concerned with vo
cational education in the state.
Medford School Superintend
ent Leonard Mayfield briefed
the group on the report.
Also discussed was the
schools' part in the Oregon
Centennial program, and pos
sible ways in which the
schools may participate. Jim
McDonald, director of public
relations in the county office,
was named to work with the
local centennial committee.
