District 549C is composed of the former Medford, Jack sonville, Oak Grove, West Side, Griffin Creek. Ruch. Howard. Lone Pine, Kenwood and Dewey school districts. "To the voters of consoli dated school District 549C: "In order to inform its pa trons and taxpayers, the board of education of consoli dated School District 549C takes this opportunity to ex plain Its views on the pro posed consolidation of Dis trict 549C and Phoenix-Talent school districts. "The question of consolida tion of these districts was raised initially by a group of patrons of the Phoenix-Talent district who desired that their children attend the Dis trict 549C consolidated schools. It would appear now that following the public hearing contemplated for Jan. 7, 1963, the voters of both school districts will be asked to vote on this consolidation. No Plan Designed "No definite plan for ac cepting the responsibility of the education of the children of the Phoenix-Talent district has been formulated by the School District 549C school board. It is not feasible to for mulate in advance the best means by which such a pro cess should De carnca out. Details relating to such fac tors as pupil location, pupil transportation, and teacher assignments must await the development of a plan to benefit best everyone in volved. It is also the opinion of the District 549C board of education that the develop ment of a detailed plan for carrying out such a consolida tion would not be welcomed by the patrons of the Phoenix-Talent school district. This should be the joint re sponsibility of the consolidat ed districts. "Certain points regarding the attitude of the District 549C board of education to ward all children coming within its jurisdiction can be pointed out. It has always been the policy of School Dis trict 549C to provide equal educational opportunities for all of its children. All elemen tary and secondary schools within the system use the same curriculum, - are equipped in similar fashion, and have access to the same materials and consultant serv ice. All teachers follow a standard course of study and instructional pattern. "As a result of the dedica tion of our staff and the ex cellent support of our tax payers, the District 549C school system offers one of the best educational pro grams in the state of Ore gon. Standards set for our pu pils are high. They have a tradition of excellence to maintain and their success is gratifying. The academic pro gram within the senior high school currently offers 91 courses. Educational authori ties have informed the board that this is one of the most comprehensive programs In the state. The pogram is geared to fit the rate of growth of the individual stu dent with appropriate empha sis in all areas. Assume Greater Role "It is now recognized by university and college cduca- assume a greater role in areas of education, formerly taught only at the college level. The years of training and educa tion required of many scien tists and scholars are long and growing longer. Rather than extend the college years, it is now considered urgent that the high school assume a greater share of the process. The Medford senior high school now provides ad vanced courses that are ac ceptable by the colleges and universities of Oregon. Stu dents satisfactorily complet ing these courses are then qualified to enroll in certain advanced courses upon enter ing the college or university of their choice. More such courses are planned. 'In order to provide a pro gram of this type in addition to the conventional program, a high school must have ade quate size, personnel and fa cilities. It is not possible to carry on a widely diversified program economically with a limited enrollment. For this reason the board members of School District S49C support the large high school concept. "In elementary education the District 549C consolidat ed school system favors the neighborhood school. Trans portation distance for grade school children should be kept at a minimum. Reasonable To Assume "In the event of a consoli dation of the Phoenix-Talent and 549C school districts, it would seem reasonable to as sume that: "1. The elementary pupils would remain essentially as they are currently enrolled. "2. The junior high students would continue as presently enrolled unless it was thought advisable to convert the Phoe nix high school into a junior high school. "3. In event of consolida tion there would probably be two senior high schools estab lished. Phoenix senior high school students would then enter the nearest of the two high schools, "The board of education of District S49C presently be lieves that the existing boun daries of the two districts should be maintained unless the two districts, as a whole, consolidate. "It is the plan of the board of education to bring shortly to the voters a bond issue for the construction of a new high school. In keeping with the large high school concept, it is intended that the new school be built for 2.000 pu pils. If there is no change in the size of School District 549C, the new high school will serve the entire district. Should consolidation with the Phoenix-Talent school district occur, the pupil load will be such as to make the operation of two high schools necessary. Senior high school students in the Phoenix. T a le n t area would be transported only as far as the nearest senior high school. Financial Positions "The relative financial po sition of the two districts is nearly identical. The bonded indebtedness and current rate of taxation for schools is quite similar, so that consolidatoin should not produce any added economic burden to taxpayers of either district. "The board of education of School District 549C desires that it be made clear to the taxpayers and patrons of the Phoenix-Talent school district that it is not making this pub. lie statement in an effort ei ther to solicit or discourage the support of the Phoenix Talent people for consolida tion. The interest of the board of education is twofold: (1) the continuance of the best possi ble educational facilities for the children entrusted to our care and (2) providing patrons and taxpayers of School Dis trict 549C with all pertinent information so that at all time they may be well-inform ed regarding their schools. The board of consolidated School District 549C believes this consolidation proposal to be timely, sound, and feasible and if submitted, recom mends it to the voters of the consolidated school district for their consideration." Oregon Tax Court Upholds Assessment Salem - IUPH - The property tax assessment made by Multnomah County Assessor Joe Hawkins and confirmed by the State Tax Commission against Bruce A. and Dorothy J. Lockard, Portland, was up held in a decision today by the Oregon Tax Court. The Lockards had sought a reduction of the assessed value of their residence real property from $8,080 to $4,400. At the time of trial the plaintiffs raised the assess ment which they sought from $4,400 to $6,480. In sustaining the assessor and commission, tax court Judge Peter Gunnar held that the Lockards had failed to sustain the burden of prov ing that the assessor's pro fessional appraisal was in error and that the taxpayers' testimony did not establish any value different from that of the assessor. A 11 Ashand Boy Confined To Detention Home Ashland A 14-ycar-old Ashland boy has been charged with break and entry after he was caught in the act of entering a garage here Wednesday. Police said, the boy also admitted breaking into two houses and two oth er garages. The youth was turned over to juvenile authorities and lodged in the Jackson county detention home. Interest Payers Are Reminded of Numbers All payers of interest and dividends have been reminded by the internal revenue serv ice that they are required by law to obtain the tax account numbers of their shareholders or depositors and use them on information documents sub- mi ted to the service. A. G. Erickson, Portland, district director, issued the re minder to banks, savings and loan associations, and credit unions this week. He explained that with in dividuals having social se curity numbers, this number is used as the account number to be included on the tax and information returns filed with the service. Persons not under social security, a number will be assigned upon receipt of an application. Applications may be obtained from the lax payer's nearest internal revenue or social security of fice or from Portland. The internal revenue serv ice, in addition to more than 90 million tax returns filed each year, receives approxi mately 340 million separata ' statements, payments, and in-; formation returns. The task of associating these docu-' ments to name and address is -tremendous and often leads to many potential errors requir-. ing contact with the taxpay-; crs. Burial Insurance Sold by Mail . . .
