Lakeland Board - (Continued From Page 1) school equipment, questioning as to whether the school corporation always pays or if it was broken by horseplay if the students pay. To this Mr. Arnold stated the building principals are in charge of their buildings and if the breakage is considered an accident the school corporation usually pays but if horseplay of any kind is involved the students must pay for same. Visitor Questions William Brammer of Syracuse was present to question the board on the recently published annual report and the new budget. He asked what School Development Corporation was and received the answer that it was the corporation that arranged for the $3,000,000 loan for Wawasee high school. The actual contract, however, is now With Lincoln National Life Insurance Company. Mr. Brammer’s next question was as to why the annual report showed the corporation spent $200,000 more than the budget. The board president and superintendent explained that the state requires annual reports to be published at the close of the school year and said

reports cover a period from July 1 to June 30, thus including the last half of one budget year and the first half of another. He then asked if the corporation borrowed SIOO,OOO from the cumulative building fund for the general fund. The answer yes. Mr. Arnold then explained this is really only a bookkeeping transaction because the June draw from the county auditor was not received until August. The money has been payed back to the cumulative fund. Mr. Arnold went on to explain that when a school corporation does not receive money on time from the county it must look elsewhere for funds to pay salaries, bills, etc. (This is also true in towns and townships) and often times a corporation must go to the bank and borrow the needed money at the going interest rate. It is therefore better to borrow from the cumulative fund and not pay interest than to borrow elsewhere. Asked why the general fund has doubled in the past three years the board stated at one time the county tax included 25 cents for schools which must now be collected by each corporation and 40 teachers have been hired since the construction of Wawasee high school and the additions at the three corporation elementary schools. Most of the outlay of the general fund is for contracts for teachers. Mr. Brammer asked about

school insurance and why it runs out August 15. He was told that because of the football season the yearly insurance program is run from that date. Tabloid In the tabloid published this week by the Lakeland Community School Corporation regarding school opening, two items need clarification. In the article regarding dress code for elementary and junior high schools, slacks and jeans for girls are NOT recommended. ' In a Wawasee high school article entitled Pass-Fail, the title word “explode” should be “EXPLORE”. Board members accepted the resignation of Mrs. Anna Hill as she is moving from the community and the suggestion of the superintendent to hire Lynn Pittman, a graduate of Syracuse high school and Manchester college, to fill the position. Mr. Pittman will teach fourth grade at Syracuse. A request from West Noble to use Wawasee facilities for three football games and seven basketball games for the 1969-70 school year was discussed in two parts. The board was in general agreement that it should not rent the football field since it is a comparatively new field and not yet completely finished. They

agreed the varsity, junior varsity and freshmen teams of Wawasee would give the field much hard usage and therefore decided not to rent the field. In the matter of the basketball season and renting of the Wawasee high school gym board members discussed the matter then decided to keep with the previous policy and instructed the superintendent to contact the West Noble school and offer them the use of the facilities at Syracuse junior high school. Christian Science Lesson For Sunday Is ‘Mind’ “And the Lord said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.” This verse from Exodus is part of the Christian Science lesson-sermon, titled “Mind”, to be read in the denomination’s churches this week.
