School Board Decides Against Continue Public

DR.. Paul Cooke, representing Local
27. AFT, and Miss Helen E. Sam
uel, chairman of the Teachers
Joint Legislative Council, all asked
for improvements to the teacher
sick leave act.
Miss Magruder and DR.. Cooke
asked that teachers be given the
right to pay substitutes out OF
their own pocket after they had
used up all the sick leave, which
they do not pay for, now allowed
Until paid sick leave was enacted
in 1949, teachers had no paid sick
leave and had to hire substitutes
whenever absent.
All three teachers asked for a
number of changes which would
improve, in their opinion, the
leave status of teachers. These in
cluded the right to take leave for
religious observances and abolish
the present rule that teacher
absent a half day without pay
loses a month of pension credit.

somewhat critical of the board.
DR.. Corning recommended the
board just acknowledge receipt of
the letter and let him take care
of the matter. He said he had
written to some of the persons
who signed the letter already.
Mr.. Sharpe warned if the board
voted on the matter, it would be-
come public property and the
public would know the contents
of DR.. Corning reply-a further
reprimand, incidentally.
Mr.. Lee said not to take action
would be to condone improper
observance of the board rules.
Lee Wants Recommendation.
This matter went to the super
intendent for reference to the
board" Mr.. Lee declared. We're
waiting for a recommendation
from the superintendent"
Several other members backed
Mr.. Lee while DR.. Cannon led the
faction that wanted to drop the
whole matter without further pub
licity for the teachers concerned.
Mrs. James w. Williams asked: !:
Are we inferring that officials in
the school system cannot disagree
with anything we do?"
"They can at their own peril, :"
Woolsey w. Hall put in.
Mr.. Steinem said no attempt
was made to prevent the teachers
from disagreeing with the board
but 1--WE don't want them break
ing the rules"
The letter in question was ad-
dressed to the members of the
Board Of Education" There was
some discussion that this was i'm
proper and it should have been
sent to "the Board of Education. I"
The board voted to hold the
matter over until the next meeting
for a report from DR.. Corning. Mr..
Sharpe ruled that the matter was
not before the board and there
fore the contents of DR.. Corning's
letter was not part of the public
record and would remain secret
until the board took action next
month.
Appeals Presented.

DR.. Corning's report on the
junior high school theory was
made to counteract any talk that
the Junior highs should be abol-

suggestion made by Mr.. Sharpe
was related to the need for utiliz-
ing space and not aimed at abol-
ishing the junior high school
theory of education.
eft nevertheless, seems desir-
able to have before us a review

school," he added.
To Report on Placement.
He said the second part of the
report. to be made at the April
meeting, would deal with the prac-
tical aspects of putting the junior
high organizations into the senior
high buildings. The. third part
of the report will suggest some
alternatives for using the space
now available in the high schools.
DR.. Corning said the junior
high idea did not happen over
night" but started as early as
1888 when President Eliot of Har-
ward University questioned the ef-
fectiveness of eight years of ele-
mentary schooling. The first
Junior high school was built in
1895 in Richmond, Ind.
Since then the system-known
as the 6-3-3 plan-has been &C
cepted over the country. The
symbols stand for six years of
elementary school, three of junior
high and three Of senior high.
Acceptance of the junior high
philosophy came in the District
in 1919 when the first two were
opened here-Shaw and Columbia.
The evolution from the old S-4
plan took IL years.
He cited Office Of Education
figures to show that Of 81 cities
with population of 100000 and
over, II per cent used the junior
highs. OF 80 cities with a popu-
lation of 10000 to $4,000, rs per
cent had the junior highs.
DR.. Corning declared he "be-
heves implicitly in the aims, pur-
poses and philosophy of the junior
high school and of the 6-3-3 plan
of school organization as whole" :"
He added:
"It is the considered judgment
of the superintendent and of every
member of his staff that the pres
ent structure of school organiza-
ton which has been so carefully
end painstakingly developed in
Washington and in the vast ma
jority Of large school systems in
America during the past half
century should be preserved"
Pearl Buck. Incident Up.
A hangover from the Pearl
Buck affair consumed nearly an
hour Of the boards time. Miss
Buck, well-known author, was
banned from appearing at the
Cardozo High School graduation

Corning's Office.
The reason was that her name
appeared in the files of the House

tivities. The fiat policy banning
any one from appearing as q
speaker in the schools If their
name was in the files, no matter
how innocent the reference, sub
sequently was relaxed to permit
Judgment to be made of the file
material.
But, still hanging over is the
disciplinary action against the
Cardozo officials who broke the
rule. At last months meeting,
DR.. Corning revealed he had re-
primanded the principal and as
sistant principal.
