A contingent of Oak "Hill
parents appeared before the
Lake-Lehman School Board
Sept. 14 to seek consideration of
{two transportation requests and
to inquire about ‘‘belated
renovations’ to a new kinder-
garten area in the cafeteria of
the Lehman Elementary
¢ School.
Spokesman for the group was
| Rudolf Schleich, who sought to
have the kindergarten bus stop
at Oak Hill changed from the
junction of Oak Hill and Vine
Street to the junction of Oak Hill
and Hilltop Avenue. ‘‘Having
the bus pick up children at the
lower circle gives rise to a
situation that is fraught with
danger,” Mr. Schleich asserted.
He also noted that of the 12
kindergarten students who are
picked up at the Oak Hill stop,
11 live in the upper circle.
School Board President
Edgar J. Lashford suggested
that the school bus stop at the
upper wel on a trial basis for
one week; following that time,
the transportation committee
and administration will decide
which stop is more satisfactory.
Mr. Schleich also asked the
board to consider splitting a bus
run into two sections to cut
down on the ‘‘inordinately long
time it takes our youngsters to
get to school.”
“If we split a run,” answered
Mr. Lashford, ‘we're talking
about buying another bus;
that’s a lot of money. We'll buy
one Vn we need one, but right
now 1¥ isn’t that much of an
inconvenience to the children,
time-wige.”’
Su intendent Robert Z.
Belles ' explained that an
unexpectedly high number of
new students had registered
late this summer, thus ac-
counting for the delay in set-
ting up classroom facilities for
the kindergarten class at Leh-
man Elementary. ‘We just
weren’t ready for them,” Mr.
Belles ovserved.
Nancy Campbell was named
to teach the new kindergarten
class.
A similar situation arose in
Ross Township, Mr. Belles
stated, when only four kinder-
garten students registered. “If
we'd wn in advance that
there would be 12 students from
Ross, we could have had a
kindergarten class there rather
than having to enroll them at
Lake Elementary,” the
superintendent said.
A series of recommendations
pertaining to the collection of
school taxes were made to the
school board through a letter
from Harry E. Moat, ac-
countant for the school district.
The suggestions will be con-
sidered by the board’s solicitor
before action is taken, said Mr.
Lashford.
The purchase of three six-feet
high room dividers for use in the
high school and Lehman
Jackson building was approved
by the board subject to receipt
of bids on the items.
Letters of resignation were
accepted from Herman F.
Whitesell, Ross Elementary
custodian, and from Kathryn E.
Downs, high school cafeteria
worker. Mrs. Downs will serve
instead as a teacher’s aid in the
Lehman Elementary School,
and William Price will replace
Mr. Whitesell as custodian at
the Ross building.
Mr.
custodian’s position is open at
the high school; interested
persons may contact him at the
administration building.
In addition to Mrs. Downs,
seven other women were hired

Belles noted that a:

Silkworth physician who has
served as team doctor for the
past two years, was named
again to that position. His
responsibilities include
examining school athletes and
attending Lake-Lehman’s
football games.
Tuition and transportation
fees will be paid by the Lake-
Lehman School District for
Bryan Simms, who will attend
the transitional class at Dallas
again this year. The board also
directed Solicitor Charles D.
Lemmond Jr. to investigate the
possibility of reimbursement
for tuition paid .for. a Jackson
Township student who attends
the Custer Street School in
Wilkes-Barre.
Mrs. Gordon Dawe was
named to replace Marilyn
Smith as school nurse during
the latter’s four-month leave of
absence.
