The head of the. North Berkshire School Union has to deal with four.

And if the superintendent, Joseph j. Joseph, finds that his supervision of 466 pupils and 21 teachers can't match other administrators in lhat statistical department, he easily beats most of them in another. Wilh Ihe Monroe and Savoy schools about 18 miles from his office at Clarkssburg Elementary School, Mr. Joseph may drive 600 miles a-month, sometimes more, on official business among the schools. 4 Towns In Union The North Berksshire School Union, formed in 1912, includes lour towns, Savoy and Motlroe.

The main thing they have in common is the superintendent and his office, on a sort of prorated cost basis: Clarksburg 40 per cent, Florida 30 per cent, Savoy 17 per cent and Monroe 13 per cent. They also act on a cooperative basis in the purchase of various supplies and in providing psychological, guidance and health (o North Adams, tuition pay top pay In seven years.

The building includes three classrooms, town library and a large hall that can be used as a gymnasium. The state group also lauded the learning atmosphere and the enthusiasm of the children and teachers in Monroe. Mr.

Joseph noted that teachers who have or four grades in each class, as in Monroe and Savoy, face challenges and problems quite different from those of the one-grade teacher. It takes a combination of personal attention, originality, community loyalty, initiative and perseverance lo do the job. An example of originality came to light when the Mr. Joseph visiled Ihe Monroe School recently. The Grades 5 through 8 class being taught by the principal, Miss Mary Havreluk, was keeping in touch wilh a sick pupil at home via small walkie- talkie radios.

The slate team did suggest that Monroe consider the possibility of sending Us Grades 7 and 8 pupils to North Adams schools if the city built a new junior high school. Mr. Joseph pointed out, that few schools have the ratio of nearly three teachers for 23 pupils that exists in Monroe. Florida Ahead The town of Florida, Mr. Joseph declared, is meeting its school building needs five years ahead of time.

The community, with a population of 679, is building a $176,000 addition to its Consolidated School. The 128 pupils at the school are in separale classes for Grades 1 through 4, but Grade 5 is combined with 6, and Grade 7 with 8. By 1972 all be separated. The Florida school addition, due to be finished in May, includes four classrooms, a large multipurpose room that 1 -can be used as a gymnasium, and a conference room. Florida is particularly proud that its curriculum includes French.

Clarksburg Growth Clarksburg, with a population of 1,945 and school enrollment of 279, faces a familiar problem suburban growing pains. A $222,000 addition is planred for the recently built Clarksburg Elementary School four classes conference room and large multipurpose room lhat can be used as a cafeteria. Clarksburg's Grades 5 through 8 arc at Briggsville School, which also houses the town library and offices. Eventually Briggsville School will house Grades 7 and 8, with others at the enlarged Clarksburg Elementary School.
