"The answer to where are
we going is implied by my
above reply Where are we
now. The needs of our children
will emerge from confusion, and
l think we will find a very hap
py and clear-cut solution, con-
sisting of a hard core of funda-
mentals for mental develop
ment, combined with a few
highly specialized studies devOt.
ed to our physical and social
maturity. There are perhaps
many courses of instruction Civ
en- today which will be found
to be useless, but we have got
to try them out to find out.
Others will be added which to-
day are not regarded as desir-
able. Surely we will continue
to grow and improve both the
teacher qualifications and cur
ricuIIlm.
"How do we get there? By
continued parent-teacher concern
and interest, and spotlighting Of
our schools by the community,
with a determination to cut out
the useless and with an open
mind, accept the new. A process
of pruning and shaping which
we can never leave entirely to
Others"
Helen M. Scharf; Bethesda; ap-
pointed September 1, 1858;
1.-TWO decades ago our school
system served the modest needs
of predominately rural county.
Today, it is challenged to provide
all the special educational serv-
ices expected and required by a
metropolitan community.
Montgomery County has
done an outstanding job of pro-
viding school buildings almost
as fast as the children appear
to fill them. Informed and ac-
tive citizens have made this pos
sible, through their constant eff
forts to get adequate apprOpria-
tiOns for schools.
Gas our enrolment grows, the
special needs of children become
more obvious, and so we have
gradually added programs for the
physically and mentally handicap
Montgomery County sentinel., 1955-09-29

ped, the emotionally disturbed and
those in need of remedial work.
These are modest programs, too
small to serve all who need them.
"The Board of Education, the
professional staff and our citi-
ZenS all- recognize that we still
have long way to go to properly
serve the diverse needs of all of
our children. Expanded opportun-
tiles in vocational education are
needed by some high school stu
dents, and at the same time more
intensive academic and technical
programs should be offered in a
system that sends more than half
of its graduates on to college.
ITO achieve, a school system
that provides the quantity and
quality of education that our citi-
zens are expecting, there will have
to be continuous cooperation be-
tween the Board of Education,
The County Council the Mont
gomery County Education Asso-
citation and citizens groups. They
must work together to define the
goals of public education and
build mutual trust in each other.
They must exchange information
and share the responsibility COR
building understanding in the gen.
eral public who pays the bill"
LathrOp Smith; Travilah; elect.
ed November, 1854.
"The Montgomery County peo-
pie cannot consider any longer
that our school needs are 'emer-
gency needs. AS long as people
want to move to our county, as
long as we continue to build new
roads and new construction, our
development will continue. We
will be better off when we stop

dollar value accounts for many
of our problems. The need,
basic to positive growth of a
school system, of periodically
analyzing and re-assessing the
educational goals and standards
has been Overbalanced by the
breath-taking concentration on
meeting sheer physical needs.
where are we going? The di-
rection favor is making possible
the fullest development of each
child so that he can serve himself
and his community purposefully.
l hope that we can orient our
thinking to the really basic ques-
ton: What do we want for our
children? Once we as parents,
citizens, and Board members have
predetermined our objectives, we
can ascertain what staff, what
mstructional elements, and what
physical essentials are necessary
to achieve our goals.
"How will we get there? In a
community like Montgomery
County where so many of the
people have indicated an aware
ness of what they want for their
children, and a willingness to
share the cost, I believe we will
get there by constantly making
available the facts about our
needs as related to high stand
ards, and by lending our ears to
the thoughtful public"
Willard McGraw; Gaithersburg;
appointed June, 1858; president;
"We have reached the point
where we are aware that edllca-
ton is vital to the preservation
of democracy and the American
way of life. 1t is no longer a lux
ury to be indulged in only when
there is nothing better to do but
it is the preparation for life with
out which one cannot cope with
the complex society of today. It
is our physical, mental and social
adjustment to a life requiring
close cooperation with neighbors
and associates.
Realizing the Importance of
education, and what we need out
of the formative years, we are
still struggling with methods; cur
riculum; the physical plants to
supply the needs. We are moving
out of the era of the student on
the log with Mark Hopkins as
a teacher, - lie. the day of in
dividual instruction, - to the
mass education of orr children.
How to get the best of the old
methods, and still meet the vary
ing needs of the many, is the
question to which there is yet no
definitive answer.

consciousness in the American

cation is simply one of evolution

I'VE should build larger than
our immediate needs and not

preparation is granted.

Wayne Birdsell; Silver Spring
elected November, 1854.
"Where are we now in educa
ton in Montgomery County? We
have good public school sys
tenn, but it should be better. Our
school plant is inadequate. Sal
aries of teachers are in line with
our neighbors but are lower than
they should be. Teacher stand
ards are high.
How did we get here? The
quality of the school system is
due to an intelligent citizenry, de-
termined to have good schools, a
well developed civic participation
by the residents and taxpayers,
and willingness to pay for good
schools.
ut is due to a determination
to expand the school plant to
keep pace with a rapid increase
in school population. 1t is due
also to the high standards for
teachers set by Montgomery
County"

ton for college education; voca-
tional skills for those who do not
go on to college and basic train
ing in democracy and the Amer
lean way of life so that our chill
dren may develop into productive
and purposeful citizens.
Salaries and educational
standards of our teachers must
be raised so that the teaching
profession will attract the high
est type of individual. The re-
ward for teaching must be high,
both in satisfaction and in ma
teriaI ways.
"Our physical plant must keep
pace with population growth to
adequately house teachers and pu-
pills without use of makeshift fac
ilities. Suitable surroundings are
necessary for high quality re-
suits.
How will we get there? We
will achieve the goals we set for
ourselves by the public sharing
in the plannings and the burden
of the program - (the business
community must join in the plan
ning) and a recognition of our
needs and a willingness to pay
for them"

to be demands for more custo-

teachers.
81 believe the demand for teach
ers will be greater than the sup
ply is being provided by our
teachers colleges. Our teaching
program will need to be kept
abreast of the changing times. We
must expand our secondary pro.
gram to more effectively meet
the need of each individual child.
I'VE must be more effective in
teaching the basic skills in ele-
mentary school and at the same
time enrich our program. We
must teach every child to seek
those things that will create an
enriched life and at the same
time train him to protect himself
against all enemies both natural
and man made.
"HOw do we get there? We
must push our construction pro.
gram to the point where the
classrOOms will be ready when
the children arrive. We must
provide enough cIassroOmS to
permit all of the school build
ing to be used for its intended
purpose.
Our teacher supply should be
supplemented by the use of re-
fresher courses, inservice training
and more consideration of expert
ence. The Board of Education
should promote economical opera
ton of the schools by cooperation
with other agencies in use of
school plant and by the use of
personnel. Duplication of serv-
ice and plant can be eliminated.
Greater cooperation between
the home, community, and school
should be promoted. Efforts
should be made to encourage the
Federal Government to continue
to provide relief in impacted
areas. The state must provide
greater share of the cost of their
minimum program thus equaliz-
ing the tax load among all the
citizens and to prevent further
rise in real estate tax"

ue WIllJe I1OuSe CONFERENCE
on Education, scheduled this fall
for Nov. % to Dec. l, will attempt
to answer for the nation four
questions: where are we now in
education; how did we get here;
where are we going; and how will

The SENTINEL has asked the
seven members of the Countys
first all-elected school board to
apply these questions to Mont

The following are their state

Public school education is one

rollments with required attend.
ance up to 16 years of age, top
ped in some systems with a jun
ior college program, is the story
of peoples acceptance of the
principle of free education for
all.
"This growth has witnessed
great changes in the philosophy
of education, in curricula, in text
books and materials of instruc-
ton, and even in school architec-
ture. The core of public school
education has remained, however,
a devoted, dedicated group of in
dividualS - the teachers and edu-
Gators, to whom we are all ever
lastingly indebted.
To-day; public school education
is entering new phases of develop
ment and change.
Federal aid in some form for
the construction of needed addi-
tional school buildings appears
reasonably certain.
"The public, realizing the soc.
ial, political and economic bene.
fits flowing from our public
schools, generally is willing to
pay the increasing costs of educa.
ton.

"A great need is to attract good

higher pay scales existing today
