New Plan to Disburse School None

New Plan to Disburse School Money
The county superintendent of
schools has received notice of the
semi annual apportionment, the
amount for the county being $l4,.
1884. For the first time this will
be spportioned to each district &C
cording to the per capita of school
population, and in this way the
smaller districts will suffer at the
expense of the larger schools
Heretofore certain portion went
to each district, irrespective of its
size, but under the new law the
whole amount is distributed on
the per capita system, Boise will
benefit largely by this new plan
Meridian and other of the larger
schools will also receive more
school money.
