It will mean an average annual increase of not more than $200 for the majority of teachers this year, and will provide for additional increments in succeeding years. Under the new setup, the starting salary for a BA degree is raised from $3800 to $4000, with a top figure of $5400, compared to' $5295 on the old schedule; other revisions raise the 5-year starting rate from $3900 to $4100, with a high of 5600; the Masters starting from $4000 to $4200, with a high of $6150; two-years' train-from $3300 to $3400, with a high of $4300; and three-years' training, from $3500 to $3600, with a high of $4550. Three new categories were set up. A BA degree, with 10 extra semester hours has a starting scale of - $4050, with a top salary of $5500 for 12 years' service; an MA degree plus 10 extra hours, starts at $4250 and goes to $6350 for 14 years' service; and an MA degree with 20 extra hours, starts at $4300 and goes to $6550 for 15 years' service. Included in the schedule is a stipulation that teachers complete six hours of professional growth credits over a period of five years in order to be eligible for the added increments. These credits can be earned either through college courses, work shops, special studies, or travel. Administrative salaries will be set at the June meeting. Policies Set Several new policies were adopted by the board. Of primary concern was the continuation of having teachers supervise school children in the Memorial Day parade. It was decided that this should be entirely voluntary, on the part of everyone, although since Memorial Day observance was to be commended, it was hoped some mutually satisfactory supervisory arrangement couid be set up by volunteers from the teaching staff, the sponsoring organization (Legion), and parents. It was pointed out that a potential figure of 1000 students could assemble for the parade 'and that supervision was necessary. George Walker, Jr., who is in ' charge of arrangements for the parade, was notified of the need for extra supervisory personnel.Approval was given for the Gideon Society to distribute Bibles in the fifth and sixth grades, and for a representative to discuss the subject briefly. If any parents do not wish their children to keep the Bibles, provision will be made for them to be returned. Two Teachers Hired Two new teachers were hired for next year.

At least three more teachers are yet to be assigned for next year: a physical education teacher for high school girls, another elementary teacher, and a high school English teacher and newspaper adviser. Seventy-seven candidates for graduation next week were ap-. proved by the board, subject to their successful completion of requirements. Of the original total of 82 seniors enrolled a month ago, three have dropped out and two have been unable to meet the requirements. In other action the board approved the employment of Mrs. Earl Hanlon to work on the school district map and the employment of two substitute bus drivers, Ervin Schibley and Mrs. Doris E. Hall. They also adopted text books in spelling and chemistry; the spelling series is entitled "Success in Spelling" by Madden-Carlson, and the science manual, "Chemistry and You" by Bradbury-McGuire-Smith & Baker. The board also authorized Supt Gousha' to investigate the possibility of iiatingi a. "Remedial ReaH'",'; jfourse as needed.

It will mean an average annual increase of not more than $200 for the majority of teachers this year, and will provide for additional increments in succeeding years. Under the new setup, the starting salary for a BA degree is raised from $3800 to $4000, with a top figure of $5400, compared to' $5295 on the old schedule; other revisions raise the 5-year starting rate from $3900 to $4100, with a high of 5600; the Masters starting from $4000 to $4200, with a high of $6150; two-years' train-from $3300 to $3400, with a high of $4300; and three-years' training, from $3500 to $3600, with a high of $4550. Three new categories were set up. A BA degree, with 10 extra semester hours has a starting scale of - $4050, with a top salary of $5500 for 12 years' service; an MA degree plus 10 extra hours, starts at $4250 and goes to $6350 for 14 years' service; and an MA degree with 20 extra hours, starts at $4300 and goes to $6550 for 15 years' service. Included in the schedule is a stipulation that teachers complete six hours of professional growth credits over a period of five years in order to be eligible for the added increments. These credits can be earned either through college courses, work shops, special studies, or travel. Administrative salaries will be set at the June meeting. Policies Set Several new policies were adopted by the board. Of primary concern was the continuation of having teachers supervise school children in the Memorial Day parade. It was decided that this should be entirely voluntary, on the part of everyone, although since Memorial Day observance was to be commended, it was hoped some mutually satisfactory supervisory arrangement couid be set up by volunteers from the teaching staff, the sponsoring organization (Legion), and parents. It was pointed out that a potential figure of 1000 students could assemble for the parade 'and that supervision was necessary. George Walker, Jr., who is in ' charge of arrangements for the parade, was notified of the need for extra supervisory personnel.Approval was given for the Gideon Society to distribute Bibles in the fifth and sixth grades, and for a representative to discuss the subject briefly. If any parents do not wish their children to keep the Bibles, provision will be made for them to be returned. Two Teachers Hired Two new teachers were hired for next year.
