Older, more con servative people .(The writer admits to being, in the \group) frequently .Be lieve the chief purpose, of the .school is found in‘‘the academic classroom. \But there are other kinds of programs. Some critics tell us we are going too far overboard on athletics. Our programs havejjeen proliferating in recent years, p a r ticu larly for' girls where greater oppor tunity was overdue. Most people seem to favor an athletic program which offers opportunities to- m any stud e n ts. Som e schools which have aban doned them, usually for financial reasons, report declining morale, greater discipline problems, and increasing community de linquency. It is believable. :ew years ago-wa-hacL three and a half music teachers. Now we are down to two. The reason was financial. This re duction displeases some music proponents. Said one recently, “ L e t’s con vert some of the athletic money to building up the music department. We could have a gopd march ing band and other ac tivities in which more kids could participate.” W e cut an art teacher, also for financial reasons, a year or two 'back and offended at least one or two people of our knowl edge. There are still some people who feel that the school should give higher priority to carin g for children’s teeth and wouldy like to see dental hygiene restored. ■ ’ ‘ Driver education is a subject which seems to sharply d ivid e .people. There are those who classify teaching a young ster tp,dnve with the care of teeth, the carrying of protective insurance for all incidents, and other items which used to be considerediamily respon sibilities. W e were' ex tremely pleased at the time we hired our present teacher to have him tell us that he didn’t care if he ever taught a student to shift a gear but he fefiTthat it was tremendously to r portant to impress on them the responsibility of sitting behind the wheel and directing two tons of metal over the highway at varying speedy. It appears that schools have reached a point financially where they can no longer be all things to all people. Choices w ill have to be made. Those choices are bound to offend someone^ Schools are caught in a series of squeezes. People want services: ynnngstera w a n t ' activities; school employ es want more money, more fringe benefits, more idealistic working conditions, and a stronger voice in decision-making; taxpayers want relief; and the state wants to cut down the share it contrib utes, There are going to be some tough decisions ahead. Board members are going to be squarely in the line of fire. Theirs is the final decision and no matter how thoughtful it may be they know that displeasure will result. Schools used to be able to be all things to all people but unfortunately it is no longer affordable. Board members serve without compensation.
