Board (continued from page 1) teachers under the state-subsidized Professional Development Plan. . Wagner said that he had nine achers willing to serve on the committee and since there was no mention of limits on the number of members on the committee, he didn’t understand why the teachers should be limited to six. “Under the Act 178, teachers are to select teachers so why limit the number to six,” Wagner asked. Nagy replied that six and six made an equal number and a managea- ble group with which to work. Dallas Superintendent Gerald Wyecallis and Wagner are co-chair- men of the committee. Wycallis told Wagner he had no problem “with either 12 or 15 on the commit- ee. : Wagner said since there were no limits he chose nine ‘enthusiastic’ teachers and now finds he is lim- ited to six. Nagy commented that she appreciated the teachers’ enthusiasm but she believed the committee should be made up of half administrators and half teach- ers. School board director William Camp made a motion that the number of teacher committee members be changed from six to ine but his motion was defeated by a 5-3 vote and the six adminis- trators and six teachers members committee resolution was adopted maby a 6-2 vote. Ernest Ashbridge, Jr., head of ‘finance committee, told those resi- dents who were concerned that the quality of education would be reduced because of cutbacks in the tentative 1988-1989 budget, that board members are not sitting back and doing nothing. “The board has received numer- ous suggestions and recommenda- tions and we are looking and will look at what we can and can’t cut,” Ashbridge said. ji Roberta May asked the. board to Biv serious thought before cutting “ back on music or art programs. “We’ have many students inter- ested in these two curriculums and if any of you had been at the band concert this year you would have realized how important the music ~program is to the students,” May “told the board. When asked if the board had set “any meeting on deliberations about the budget, Wycallis said none had ‘been set to his knowledge. He said discussion on the budget would probably be held prior to the final doption at the June 27 meeting. # Taxpayer Phil Grossman of Stone Hedge asked if the discussion ~would be private and board chair- man Thomas Landon said as long as he was running the meeting “would be open and discussion held prior to the vote. Drena Gorgone, resident of Shav- ~ertown, asked the board if mem- ‘bers were aware of the possible need of another elementary teacher next year. ‘‘Is the money available for another teacher, if you have extra students?’’, Gorgone asked. Wycallis explained that the reno- vation of the rooms in the Dallas Elementary building and some transfer of students, the problem would be alleviated. : The superintendent explained that he had discussed the projected enrollment of students at West- moreland with elementary principal Samuel Barbose and that enroll- ment there should be down by at least 39 students next year. The two modular units added to Westmoreland for classrooms ear- lier in the school year had eased the crowding problem and the recently approved renovation project at Dallas Elementary which will convert former storage space into two classrooms will enable the district to reduce the number in classrooms to approximately 22 stu- dents or less. The administration will ask for nine volunteers to transfer from Westmoreland to Dallas Elemen- tary. Wycallis also explained that they are looking at reducing the kindergarten classes by evening them out between Westmoreland and Dallas Elementary. “We are watching the enrollment very closely,” Wycallis commented, “And will keep the board informed of any changes.” Dallas resident John Litz asked if there was any way that the many new homes built within the district could be added to the tax rolls. Wycallis said that business man- ager Charlotte Williams is schedul- ing a meeting with the tax collec- tors to discuss the possibility. Wycallis said it is his understand- ing that the district can go back as far as two years to collect taxes from those not on the tax rolls. Ned Carey said he believed he had the right to ask board mem- bers be polled on how they planned to vote on the final budget. Board member John George said to Carey “You have the right to request but we also have the right to refuse an answer.” In other action, new textbooks in Consumer Mathematics and Pre- Calculus Mathematics were approved; approval of the addition of $25,000 reallocation of Chapter I funds into the budget for 1987-88 expenditures; appointment of Ber- kheimer Associates to collect occu- pational privilege tax, delinquent per capita tax and earned income tax; and approval of College Miser- icordia seniors Patricia Dworak, Cheryl Blockland and Harold Hoover as practice teachers; and Wilkes College student Nancy Grimm as practice teacher, all in the 1988 Fall semester. The board also approved the request of Mary E. Yankowski, secretary at the senior high school for a six month maternity leave effective July 25. A meeting for final adoption of the budget will be June 27 at the Administration building.

If conservation of water is neces- sary to supply water to the present Back Mountain residents, those who have been without water for long periods of time are question- ing the issuing of permits to build more homes in the Back Mountain. ‘““The water company can’t supply the residents who have been here for years,” Molski and some of her neighbors commented. ‘‘How do they expect to supply water service to 50 or 60 more house- holds, many of these proposed for construction in the area adjacent or near Stone Hedge?” x ER Sa DALLAS ELEMENTARY STUDENTS Dallas Elementary students participated a in the dedication of the new Dallas Elementary Playground Friday, June 10. Hundreds of children heard the PTO members and speakers as they invited the students to enjoy the new playground throughout the year. (Charlot M. Denmon Photo) Roese grateful for community's help | Bob Roese is 42 years old. He has been married for 20 years. He and his wife have three daughters.He has been teaching upper level english classes at Lake Lehman High School, and is Chair- man of the English department. Bob Roese fits the description of a fairly typical middle class Ameri- can, but there is a difference. He has had three benign brain tumors in the past five years. A breakfast was held at the Lake Lehman high school last Saturday, June 11, to help raise funds for Bob Roese’s medical expenses. Turnout was high, and students, school staff, and members of the commu- nity participated and showed their support and friendship. The event was one of many that have been held to raise money for Roese and his family. The collec- tion of aluminum cans for recy- cling, a skating party, an ice cream sundae sale, and a car wash have been organized by the Lake Lehman High school students and faculty. Private donations have been also made. The total amount raised is in the thousands. “The fund raising, prayers and love offered through this ordeal by the school and community have been incredible. I can’t say enough how grateful I am for their con- cern’’said Roese. The fund raisers organized by the school completely covered the cost of the round trip for Roese and his wife to the University of California hospital in San Fransico, the only place in the country uhere he could get the medical treatment he needed. Roese has been on medical leave from Lake Lehman since last Spring, after reoccurence of the tumor was discovered. “We are very close as a school, everyone from the school staff to faculty to students wants to help Bob’’ said Rose Zbiek, a math teacher at Lake Lehman. Zbiek is faculty adviser to the school Key Club who organized the breakfast along with the Back mountain Kiwanis and school per- sonnel. Community support has been strong. For example, Roese’s wife brought her car in to Gunn- brothers in Lehman, and when she came to pick it up later she was told the repair work was free. The Roese’s went to the Lazy-Boy show- case to buy a chair, not only did the owners let them borrow a chair until their own was delivered, but gave them .a gift certificate towards it’s cost. Students came as a shock. One student commented, ‘its makes you realizes how lucky you are’. After each reoccurence, he has come back to teach at Lake Lehman. They hope to see him teaching again. Roese has a positive attitude about the future, and doesn’t like to linger on his medical problems. He stresses again and again how grateful he is for the support and kindness given to him and his family by the school and commu- nity. : ‘‘Anyone would have received this support its not just me. The good things at Lake Lehman are unique, and I am proud to be a part of the caring and sincerity of the students and teachers here.” Roese said. A Lake Lehman math teacher commented, ‘‘After the second time the tumor came back Bob had planned to take it easy and stop teaching for awhile. But he was there the first day of school. Know- ing Bob, he’ll be back.” 5 A ry an ay, June 15, 1988 os i! interviewed said that | the reoccurence of Roese’s tumor [i The classic sport coat for all seasons. Next Sunday June 19th is .
