Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 8,1971 —
service assistant director. Mrs. Yost is al-
so present.
The program is part of the Penn State
College of Agriculture public affairs edu
cation program supported by W. K. Kel
logg Foundation grant.
The Nixon Administration re
cently put forwaid a plan for
changing the federal role in pub
lic education It is a plan to
pull together more than thuty
federal aid-to-education pro
grams into a $3 billion levenue
sharmg package
The revenue-sharing appioach
to fedeial financing of our
schools, if approved by Congiess,
would altar substantially the
present piecemeal system of aid.
It would not alter, however, the
fedeial commitment to provide
resources for meeting rising
educational needs
I In fact, revenue sharing
(would, by consolidating the mo
ney allotted for the schools, make
possible a useful definition of the
(federal role in elmentary and
secondary education
This federal role, as outlined
b> the Administration, is thiee
fold (1) the allocation of fin
ancial resources on a bioad and
continuing basis to help states
and local school distucts meet
their responsibilities, (2) the
provision of national leadership
to help reform and renew our
schools to improve peifoimance,
and (3) the concentration of re
souices to meet urgent national
problems during the period
when they are most intense
That tmrd point is illustrated
in some of the financial specifics
detailed in the first year pro
gram for educational revenue
sharing Since meeting the needs
of disadvantaged childien cer
tainly ranks high on a list of
immediate school pnoiities,
moie than half of the fust-year
funds would be directed toward
that puipose
The remained of the money
would be set aside in bioad gen
eral categories such as education
of the handicapped aid to
school areas affected by federal
actmties, vocational education
and supporting materials and
services.
The difference between re
venue sharing and the piesent
financing procedure is that un
der levenue sharing local schools
would make their own decisions
about using funds wuhin the
broadly defined categories.
No longer would the federal
government be in the business
of substituting its own good in
tentions for {local undei standing
of local problems and for local
ability to attack those problems.
Instead, there would be a re
cognition that the need foi fed
eral money in modem education
doss not have to diminish the
adiantages oi state and local
knowledge of lesponsibility for
and author.tj in school matteis
