SCHOOL APPORTIONMENTS.
TO THE EDITOR TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT.
D ear S ir ,—In the south end of the
county there is dissatisfaction among
many of the patrons of our public
schools in regards to the appor
tionment of the county school fund
among the several school districts.
I understand by the law that the
county school superintendent must ap
portion to each district who have re
ported to him according to law, fifty
dollars; and if there is not sufficient
funds to apportion to each district fifty
dollars, then he must apportion the
whole amount pro. rata, so that each
district may share alike.
1 understand from very good au
thority that our ex-county school super
intendent based the apportionments of
the county fund upon the census report
of the districts.
I believe the apportionment of the
school fund made on the third Monday
in April of each year is wholly made up
of the county fund, and bv the published
report of the county superintendent, I
draw the idea that the apportionment
has been based upon a census report of
the several districts.
The intention of the law apportioning
fifty dollars to each district, on dividing
pro. rata, if there is not sufficient funds
in the county treasury at the time of
making the apportionment to allow each
district fifty dollars, is to help the weak
districts, so they may have more school
each year.
If the law has been violated there is
great reason that those who have been
injured should make a strong effort to
see that it should not occur again.
I beg for a free discussion of this
question in our county paper by those
who are interested. This letter is pre
sented in a kindly; but with an injured
feeling.
Respectfully,
J ohn D. C hitwood ,
Clerk, District No. 34.
Emma, Or.________
[That portion of the law relating to the
apportionment when the county school
fund is not sufficient to apportion to
each district $50 is construed differently
by various attorneys, some holding to
the opinion that the term “ pro rata”
applies to districts, while others say it
has reference to the number of children in
the district. It was on the latter basis
that the August apportionment was
made. The law does not state at what
time the $50 apportionment is to be
made. It is to be made but once a year,
however, and the other apportionment
is to be made per capita. We have as
certained from the records that the ex-
sujierintendcnt made one $50 apportion
ment each year, and that this was the
first year the funds were insufficient for
such an apportionment. Superintendent
Lamb informs us that in a very few days
he will make a supplementary appor
tionment to the August apportionment
in which eack district will receive a suffi
cient amount to give it $50 with the
former apportionment. Thus no ma
terial injury will be wrought to any
district.]
