HIah School Discussion.

Oskaloosa, March 4, Editor Herald
Having read the report of the High
school expert employed by the Com
mercial Club OF the City and School
Board of Oskaloosa, and following
with an invitation for disclssion.
wish to say a few words alopg the
line of Preparedness. D..
| Taking for granted that the report
of the Expert was correct and that
| OskaloOsa is, according to said report,
under the painful necessity Of furnish
ling larger Accommodations for High
School purposes. have a plan; or
rather | wish to bring the attention
of the People of this county and sew
eral School Districts to the knowledge
Of the fact that a wise provision has
been fade under the School Code of
! the State of Iowa. providing for a
method whereby the present condi-
! lions can be met and not become a
burden to any one community or Dis
trict in the County.
1t is very apparent that the people
under the present condition of bust
ness and Educational requirements
are DESTROYS that their children re-
ceiye a more thorough and complete
Education. And in order that the con-
ditions be met, for the entire popula-
ton of the county; that the burden
Should be placed on the County as a
whole.
Oskaloosa, through the generosity
of the tax poyers and the School Board
have furnished room for outside pup
lis and have charged only what the
school law of the state permits. At
the present time our school is crowded
to its. full capacity and we must Of
necessity make some provision for the
future.
Now at this time for Oskaloosa to
have to meet the burden of building
a new and more commodious building
for HIGH school purposes, would tax
the district beyond the limit.
Under this caption | would suggest
that the people take advantage of the
provisions under Section No. 272S.
Providing for County High schools, of
vision and plan is fully set forth here
land the plan is complete. in as much
as the plan of running the school is
set out in every detain.
The plan of taxation is set forth, so
that the several School districts of
the county are TAXED according to the
proration of taxable value of the dis
trlct as in other provisions in the
County
would be glad to have others COM
Iment on this plan, am convinced
that this is the solution of the present
conditions. and would make a wise
provision ard the High school axe
comodations would be provided for in
full bv putting up a building of large
CAPACITY that would cost in the neigh
horhood of two hundred thousand dol
lars. .-~a
