Creator and Savior. Jesus, our
Savior, is God! Perhaps this is the
best reason of all to include Santa
Claus in the Christmas Birthday
party each year. 1t offers our chill
dren and us comparison.
Good old Santa" brings toys and
other objects for earthly pleasure
Ceven though God the Creator
should receive much more credit.
The little Baby Jesus brings us
salvation and the Promise of Ever
lasting Life Thus our children
are confronted with choice at a
very early age, choice which will
follow them all the days of their
life! What gift in life is the most
valuable? The decision is not as
easy as it sounds, is it, Nom and

Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1960-11-03

lot more dollars for education than is the average
over the nation, even in the best-supported school
districts
incidentally, for the statistical-minded, all
per-pupil figures cited in this article refer to what
the professionals call weighted elementary pupil
units. This does not mean fat children; on the
contrary, weighing is done for the higher costs
of secondary school education in comparison with
elementary, due to salary diferentials, materials
costs, and smaller classes-and for higher costs
found in small districts, because classes neces
sarily smaller.)
The fact that suburbanites are Smelling ont more
dollars for their kiddies' tutelage does not neces-
sarily mean that they are hurting themselves doing
it, or spending too much" After all, the average
income of the suburbanite is great deal higher
than that of the typical u. S citizen. Only local
statistics will indicate how much higher, but COM
mon sense shows that the average in your town
has little relationship to the national average per
capita personal income of $222O per year.
Surprisingly enough, in the Deep South Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and MississippD,
taxpayers spend 1857 of their per capita income
for education, as against only 1920 in supposedly
enlightened New England and 1919 on the
wealthy West Coast There is, therefore, excellent
reason to believe that the average suburban town
spends less of its per capita income for education
than does the deepest southern state.
Another indication that most suburban towns
are not facing imminent bankruptcy comes from
the wide range of per capita school expenditures
that exists among them. For instance, two towns in
the suburban sample spent more than $1,000 per-
pupil per year, and the top $50 spent well over
the $3.50 mark. Economy minded observers will
be interested to note, however that the most par
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1960-11-03
too high or too low to meet the need

simonious suburban town spent only little more
than $425. If the big spenders can carry the load
they do. it is unlikely that those with median costs
are going out of business.
Suburban communities are paying considerably
more per-pupil to educate their youngsters than
the top ten per cent of school districts in the
nation, but they not paying their teachers any
where near that much better.
The median suburban school system is paying
an average teachers salary of $6,5S7, as against
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1960-11-03

average rate in the top tenth of school districts
of $6,674. Seven suburban school systems have
reached an average of better than $1,000, and the
salaries of classroom teachers in few of them
have surpassed the $ll 900 year mark. Unci-
dentay, if an average" teacher who had earned
an average salary of $1,000 in 1889 had kept pace
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1960-11-03

with the national rise in per capita disposable
income-the increased dollars the average Ameri-
can has to spend-she would have to be earning
$7.436 in 1862
One of the magic statistics, beloved of educa-
onists is the ratio of the students TO Institutional
staff please note that this is not pupil-toclass
room-teacher ratio, but rather ratio of pupils TO
all members of the Institutional Staff-which is
everybody except the clerks, the janitors, and the
secretaries.)
PupiI-Teacher Ratio
Here, our suburban sample gladdens the heart
OF the enthusiastic PTA'ers. The average suburban
school system has ratio of thousand pupils to
about sixty instructors or, more cOnventionaly,
pupil-inStructor ratio of about II to l. This COM
parcs with an average ratio in the top tenth Of
American school districts of 20 to and nation
al average of about "a to /.
The charge that the lush school systems arc pay
ing an nordinate share of their dollars for pupil
housing just doesn't hold water-despite the fact
that il has been just these suburban communities
that have faced the worst growth problems in
recent years. On average, those schools that are
paying more than $400 per pupil for current ex-
penses are adding only 1O-1l% for housing"
debt service and capital outlay. This figure is
far lower than the percentage that is being spent
for similar purposes by those with less heavy
current costs.
All this is very interesting, you say, but how
about my town? Am being overcharged for edu-
cation? Or are my youngsters getting short shrift,
compared with the money being spent on the kids
by other good suburban towns in the United States?
Are my towns teacher salaries too low to attract
the best Gas the PTA zealots insist) or foolishly
