WORMLEYSBURG
FOR CENTRAL HIGH
School Board of West Shore
Borougli Issues Strong State
ment to- Voters
Wormleysburg, Pa., Oct. 27. The
Wormleysburg School Board has taken
the first step in advertising the pro
posed AYest Shore Central Hieh
School by issuing a statement
to their voters, explaining clearly
what Wormleysburg must do to se
ire the improvement. The board
i-IfTT plans to hold a mass meeting in
the town hall next Thursday evening.
The statement issued to-day by the
board follows:
"Our present High school is a high
school of the third class, with a two
year course. The terms are of S
months' duration. Lasi year it cost
ihe school district $1,175 to maintain
it. This sum includes the tuition of
two pupils who attended the Harris
burg High school. (Pupils who
graduate from a school of the second
or third class, have the privilege,
under existing laws to complete their
education at a first-class high school,
at tile expense of their school district.
■This right and this expense cannot be'
evaded by the directors of the district, j
The tuition in Harrisburg is $71.25 per
term, for each scholar from an out-'
side district.
"The 1917 graduating class of the
Wormleysburg High school includes
nine scholars. It" these scholars take
advantage allowed them by the law.
and complete their education in the'
Harrisburg High school, it will in-1
crease the expense $641.25, which j
.will bring the cost of maintaining our ;
High school up to over SI,BOO a year,
which will require an additional tax!
of three mills to meet the increased!
expense. This would make the school j
tax fourteen mills. The school direc- I
tors are powerless to prevent this in- t
crease. The law prescribes their,
i duties and they are lawfully bound to '
perform them. This expense will i
probably become higher the followfhg |
year.
"To participate in the new joint!
j High school of the first-class it is pro- |
posed to issue bonds to the amount of;
J7.000 bearing five per cent, interest,!
redeemable in thirty years. The ex- ,
pense each year would be: Interest on
bonds, $350; sinking fund to redeem'
bonus. $233; estimated cost to main
tain twenty-two pupils (present uum- I
' bell in joint High school, $1,050;
total, $1,639.
"According to the above estimate, i
. which we consider conservative, it <
would cost the school district about j
one mill less than to continue under ■
.our present system. However, the'
cost might possibly be about the j
same.
"The new school would enable the i
pupils to complete their High school
course within four years in our own
schools. As it is they must attend
the AA'ormleysburg High school two
years and then go to Harrisburg
where they have to drop back a year
on account of our term being shorter,
in this way they must attend the;
AA'ormleysburg High school two years I
and the Harrisburg High school for
three years to get n first-class High
school education, under present con- i
ditions, and it costs the district to keep |
the pupil in school five years, where
it would only cost for four years, if
we had a joint High school."
Other AYest Shore school boards are
expected to follow the AA'ormleysburg
body. A mass meeting will be held in
The Methodist Church at AA'est Fair
view next Tuesday evening at 7:301
o'clock. Prof. J. Kelso Green, super
intendent of the public schools of:
•'umberland county and William M. 1
Denison of the Stat° Educational De
partment, will speak.
