School Board Agrees

To New Salary Scale

In response to requests from teachers, the school board in a meeting last night in the Courthouse in Washington agreed to the changed teacher salary schedule as set up by the state salary fund. This new salary schedule places certificates and years of experience ( up to six years) at $1800 and $2000.

Appointments of many teachers were recommended and approved, but appointments of some were deferred until a schedule for all classes in the new consolidated high school was arranged. Thi* would allow better choice after the number of classes to be taught was known.

A discussion of the condition of several busses brought out that at least one new bus was needed, but it was hoped that the session could be finished with the present equipment.
