Clay Osborn, chairman of the board, has announced that the meeting was "called to explore the areas of disagreement between the teachers and school board." The subjects of discussion have not been determined.

A number of the teachers have taken the contracts offered them and are withholding them pending further negotiations. About 40 persons attended the PTSA meeting at RHAM High School Monday evening which had as its program an explanation to the public of the budget and curriculum for the coming year. This was a great contrast to tlif more than 600 residents who had attended each of two budget meetings and had cut almost 10 per cent from the budget proposed by the Board of Education. A total of $407,686 was left for the board to use for the year.

Budget Cuts Explained Several points were brought up Monday pertaining to the revised budget to explain some of the reductions. The school's athletic program will cover the same sports and comietilion as this year even though coaching and transportation items were reduced. It will bo more self supporting than in the past, however. Use of the school facilities by community groups will still.be encouraged, but the charge will be increased to cover the cost of h.it and power. The item for library books was reduced almost $1,000, but the school is receiving a grant for scientific books of $1,457 to supplement the library.

The city district Bonrd of Education voted an IB-credit requirement Tuesday night to replace the present 16 units. The board also took steps to start an accelerated course for exceptional students in the element ry grades. The appointments of two new teachers and a custodian were also approved. More information is to be furnished before the board acts on a request to allow the Gideon So- icicty to distribute Bibles to school children. School Superintendent Edward Fillback told the board that a faculty studv committee has been Easing Off The committee found that most students entering their senior year are within one or two credits of graduation under the present lfi-miil requirements.

The committee found that there has been an easing of efforts by some seniors because of this. The 18-unit requirement will force a senior to pass at least three subjects in his final year. The board also voted a full credit for typing, currently a half-credit Accelerated Program Under the accelerated course plan for the pupils entering the seventh grade in the fall, a group of 22, who have been found to be mature and capable, are being tested for the special program. Supt. Fillback said the group finally selected will be less than the number being tested.

Seybolt said hopes to have specialists in the field come and work with the staff on this.

He added that two of the new teachers for the coming year have had experience in the field and may spend some time helping the guidance program. A question was raised as to how the hardship grant' would be used if it is received. This Aill be a capital outlay item and not affect the operating budget of the school. The House passed the bill this week that requests the state department and board of education to reconsider the original request of the district for a grant of $724,000. The Senate will act on it next.

The need for offering more advanced mathematics and science courses in high school was also questioned. Seybolt explained that today's youngsters can handle these coursccs and the students will need them to moot the competition from other schools offering them. He pointed out that some colleges are already revising their math program to require the additional study in high schools. Seybolt said that the school hopes to incorporate a three track system so that every pupil can develop to his fullest regardless of his native ability. The advanded math and science courses are the start of this system for the college bound students.
