A budget review committee is examining priorities, but a decision is unlikely this month, said schools trustee G.

Arthur Willardsen. Searching for a simple explanation of the complex budget problems, Superintendent Mar-lin Foxworth said: "We have 10 good things being asked for. And we've got money for three good things." One of the highest priorities for parents is security. "There is a lot of violent activity going around," Adriana Standard said of Bemis Elementary School. Part of the problem, another parent said, is that the school day ends at the same time throughout Rialto, placing young and older kids on the street together.

"It's getting a little bit more By RICHARD BROOKS The Sun's Rialto Bureau RIALTO Back-to-school problems are prompting some Rialto parents to urge remedies ranging from rehiring an athletic trainer to tightening security, but officials say it will take money and parents' help. An athletic trainer, nurses and music teachers were among those who lost their jobs amid $6 million in budget cuts last June. Now a committee is looking at reinstating some of those workers and parents and students are clamoring to ensure children will be protected at school. "It's so scary!" Veronique Aurora said Wednesday of Eisenhower High School's lack of an athletic trainer. "We have no nurses now.

The group was founded in 1965 by the Fontana Unified School District's PTA and began as part of the adult education program, said Holt. After special education students finished school, there were no services for them and nothing for them to do, Holt said.

"Our primary purpose is to meet this need to train disabled adults to find jobs." Thanks to a federal grant and private donations, Industrial Support Systems branched out on its own.

But no one promised quick solutions. Schools are being asked fb solve gang problems that confounded all facets of society, the superintendent said.

"I need your help," Foxworth told parents. "I just can't do it by myself. We just can't keep thrpw-ing money at it for security." And all things considered, said Willardsen, the list of back-to-school complaints has been light compared with past There have been no major scheduling problems mentioned at Eisenhower and no chronic behavior problems at a nearby shopping center, he said. And other schools also are improving, he said. "Frisbie Junior High has come a long way." He urged people to emphasise the positive.

LOCAL BRIEFS Fontanan stabbed, robbed of $100 in sidewalk holdup A 29-year-old Fontana man was cut on the neck and shoulder Wednesday night by a man who stabbed him during a robbery, authorities said. Jose Orozco was walking home on the 9100 block of Catawba Avenue about 9 p.m. when two men demanded money from him, Fontana police said.

Orozco refused and the men stabbed him and took $100 before leaving in a small, dark-colored car. Police are seeking two men for investigation of robbery and assault with a deadly weapon.
