Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1963-05-28
BY Don r. Kendall,
Chairman, Republican
State Central Committee

County residents over 65 years of age will
have a real estate assessment exemption OF
$1,000 next year. This increase from the pre-
sent $500 was supported by the County
Council and enacted by the delegation in the
General Assembly
What does this mean to the senior citi-
zens of Montgomery County?
1t means that their real estate taxes will
be reduced by an additional 81 400 exemption
on the assessment evaluation. For many
struggling to get along on fixed retirement
benefits in the face of mounting prices, this
exemption will help them to keep their homes
in Montgomery County.
1t was only two years ago, when the
plight of retired persons trying to meet the
county's mounting tax burdens was noted,
that county official said if they can't afford
to live in Montgomery County they should go
somewhere else. This obviously is not the
attitude of the County Council nor the dele
CATION nor, we think, Of most county citizens.
To have balanced community we need
to consider not just housing excesses such as
urban sprawl, but also policies which would
tend to restrict our population by wealth or
age. We particularly want to see those people
who have made their homes i'm Montgomery

Result Of Cuts

Recently the teachers receiv.
ed a letter from the board in
which the latter expressed
confidence in the teachers to
rise to the occasion and conf
dence in their loyalty to the
profession. / too feel that this
will be true in most cases. 1t
is not the teacher whom we
should be most concerned
with, but rather the students.
I do not feel that the stu.
dents will be able to get the
individual assistance, nor will
the homogeneity of the group
ing be as good as it should be
with the larger groups that
We expect next year. 1t is very
easy to divide tx" number Of
teachers into tx" number of
pupils to say that the average
load per teacher will probably
be 30 students. This will prob
ably be true in my school,
Montgomery Hills Junior High
School, as we will have 100
plus students and A teachers,
which would be 81 plus stu.
dents per teacher. Now when
you figure that seven teachers
will not be teaching each per-
iod, as they now have one
planning period per day, this
will bring the average up to 30
plus per period. Next, you
have to figure that some sub
jects require that there be less
than 80 in a class, or that
there are some electives that
might not have 80 students
due to scheduling difficulties.
This again will bring the
teacher load up to an average
of approximately 80 students.
We will also have to con.
slider that these students will
not be distributed evenly in all
three grades so this might
lower the average for some
teachers. Where it is lowered
for some, it is raised for
others. Now we can see that
In some grades the average
might be 35 and in others the
average could be % students.
When we blend in the com.
plexity Of 30 students and 1000
students with a great variety
of schedules, we can easily see
the possibility of a range of
20 to 40 students per class.
| would like to be a little
more specific and talk about
myself. I am chairman of the
Boys Physical Education Dept.
and have been for the past
five years and a teacher in the
same department one wear
prior to this. For the past
two years we have had three
fun time teachers in our de.
parment, and during this
time, our average class size
has been approximately 35.
but the range due to schedul.
ing difficulty has been from %
to so. Prior to that we had
two full time teachers and one
who taught three periods in
another field and relieved the
two regular teachers during
their planning periods. The
average class size then was
approximately AZ. with an
average range from 80 to IS.
but on occasions, we had
classes of 70, rs, 65, and so stu.
dents. Next year we will prob.
ably go back to this type Of
schedule with two fun time
teachers and a relief teacher.
l can again foresee these class
sizes ranging from 80 to IS.
Just how viii this affect nv
teaching?
A good class for Physical
Education is 80 students. When
this number is exceeded the
philosophy of the teacher has
10 change from teaching TO
that OF providing recreation
and being a disciplinarian. AS
