Pioneer in Agriculture Galesburg-Augusta schools are GALESBURG At the end of another school year, Stanley Benjamin, superintendent of the Gales-burg-Augusta Community schools, looks back on the 1952-53 year as one of many accomplishments he looks ahead to the next year with mixed feeling of anticipation and doing a pioneering job in the field of agricultural training.

This poses the problem of additional space, new buildings, etc. The only immediate solution for Galesburg-Augusta will be the redistribution of children in the present buildings, which are located in two different places.

This means that more children will go to school in the "other" town from where they live. As Mr. Benjamin points out, we are no longer living merely in towns; we are living in larger areas served by the best of transportation and but a few minutes from each child's home, regardless of which school he attends. "It will be necessary to readjust our thinking to this fact if the children of this school district are to their livings in the city. companiment.

KINDS SOWEB IN TOLVNS -Tg IF HE CAN HIS f. ers. Mr. Benjamin poinis oui mat the Michigan census for 1952 showed the largest number of citizens under the age on one year in the history of the state. What this means for the state's schools in 1957 and the following years is, easily seen.

In the Galesburg-Augusta school district now, for instance, there are 1,019 children in the school age group (5-19 years) compared with 949 in 1952 and 894 in 1951. Reasons Given Behind these figures are two important and challenging sociological facts, according to the superintendent. One is that young people are marrying at an earlier age then they have for a number of years; the other Is the tendency toward larger planned families. The problem which each community faces, therefore, is how to plan wisely for both the present and future education of its children in the public schools. Mr.

Benjamin stated that Galesburg Augusta district citizens are hard at work facing these and other problems. A beginning was made this spring when the school board, at the request of the PTA. appointed a Citizens' committee with Donald Chase of Rural Galesburg as chairman. Two of the more important subcommittees are the Curriculum Committee, under the leadership of Mrs. Warren Speers of Augusta and the Building Utilization committee with Morris Raymer of rural Galesburg and newly elected school board member, as chairman.

The former committee is charged with the study of the present curriculum, the teachers' and parents' reaction to it, and the responsibility of making constructive suggestions for the future. The latter committee is working with the thorny question of population trends, their ef SOf lyKftUST Superintendent Benjamin closed his remarks with the observation that however difficult the problems ahead look, "They provide a challenge and with open minds and have the best possible education," he said. The other problem, that of finding teachers, is shared by all Michigan superintendents, almost without exception. At this date, four new contracts have been signed here with seven jobs yet to be filled. In looking at the past year Mr.

Benjamin noted with satisfaction the expansion of the cooperative training program which was started a year ago. This program enables seniors to work half days in industry under supervision in their chosen fields, to gain experience, credit and pay for same and to have a job waiting for them upon graduation. Another source of satisfaction this past year has been the strengthening of the band, under Paul Heyboer, director. New interest in the band was stimulated chiefly by the purchase of uniforms, a project begun and carried through steady work solutions will be found." ANSWERS TO LOOK AND LEARN 1.
