Curing such ills costs money

Naturally 1T is going to call for careful planning and
wise management, but it is clear we can make little
headway unless give the County Board Of Education

But can our schools do this job
for us?

We losing good teachers right and left-19O out
of the Countys staff of SOB last year-one resignation
every two days far this year. We are having to fill
in with many people who do not meet established quail
fcatons-133 the staff last year. No school is bet
ter than its teachers The teachers skill is the back
bone and heart of the entire system.
And to make a bad matter worse, pitifuly few new
teachers in training. AT the University of Mary
land, George Washington University, and all the State
Teachers Colleges there only three students from
Montgomery County who preparing for teaching!
Why are in such fix? Because have been
expecting teachers to work for salaries which way
out of gear with the responsibility they must carry and
the training they must have The only solution is to
give them raise-and big Many of the good
ones we've lost could then afford to back.
Montgomery County sentinel., 1947-06-05
But we can afford it

Montgomery County's taxable wealth is much high
than average.
Last year the people spent $5 million in the Cour
liquor dispensaries. In the face of that can
million is too much to spend on the schools.
In 1945 the people of the U. IS spent $21 per cap
on tobacco In the face of that no one can say
shouldn't spend $18 per capita for schools.
We can't afford not to do it! 4

Everybody hos big stake in the public schools

Consider, for example, former County teacher who
left for job with the Federal Government and which
now pays her $3700 If she had stuck to teaching we
would now be rewarding her loyalty and seven years
of experience with salary OF $2250.
Montgomery County sentinel., 1947-06-05
Yes, a big stake

Just what is it citizens expect the public schools
to do for US? Basically these three things:
1. For the pupil future citizen, whether he is
destined to be leader plain voter-to help give
the background knowledge and to develop the wisdom
and the of duty which necessary in everyone
if to preesrve democracy.
g. For the pupil future producer-to provide
solid foundation for training in occupation
craft for advanced professional cultural schooling
On this depends the initiative and enterprise which
provide American standard of living.
g. For the pupil indvidual-to help instill the
fundamental knowledge necessary to getting along in
the world and living wellrounded, happy, and morally
straight life.
Excepting only those who expect to depart this life
tomorrow, everybody has vital personal stake in at
least one of these functions of r'lbic schools.
