™ rcOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA TOP HE AVY! MORE THAN DOLLARS ARE NEEDED We have come a long way since the little Red School House was the universal seat of learning. IWe spend billions on schools and equipment. . . modern buildings in park-like surroundings . . . for teachers bedecked with high-sounding, impressive degrees . . . for school psychologists, counselors, nurses and other professional aides. With only 6 per cent of the world’s population and about one-third of its developed resources, we Americans now invest annually in education almost as much as all other nations combined. In the past two decades, public school enrollment nearly doubled but the number of school employees tripled and financial support (in constant dollars) increased 350 per cent. Yet many educators, be moaning the plight of today’s schools, claim lack of money is the root of the problem. But do vast expenditures alone automatically ■ guarantee a good education for our children? In a r recent speech, Roger A. Freeman, a special assistant to President Nixon, cited evidence to the contrary. He quoted a survey by James S. Colqman of Johns Hopkins University which found that “the physical and economic resources going into a school had very little relationship to the achievements coming out of it.” i A detailed study of New York City schools showed reading and arithmetic achievement in some high expenditure schools was well below that in schools with the lowest expenditures. The survey found littie relationship between student achievement and such factors as class size, condition of buildings, teacher experience. The school must provide a good education for the child. Just spending billions of taxpayers’ money is flo adequate substitute for tangible achievements. We must resolve to find the right answer without sacrificing our children to the experimentalists but rather by assuring them a sound education. As Mr. Freeman points out, the belief in the educational magic of the dollar dies hard, partic ularly in legislative halls. It’s up to citizens every there to demand more education for the dollar idler than more dollars for education. • I \tj k Ju^3Yrucv\psotj : £pirn Mote *' 4 ''ffflF ? thaw 5.5 million miles : of commercial [’Eiviwc, Experience over the V I PAST 34 VEAKS, FRANK H * PEEUCIA OF HAMPEKI, CONN., feti fLjJb-. i l *IUO HAS WOT BEEN IWVOLVEP \(J >t\ • |N A SERIOUS ACCIPEWT, HAS % ,i|— ' | * ggEN WAMEP THE AMERICAN UL T,.. flip' J ; -TRUCIOWG ASSOCIATIONS' V, /W 1970 PgIVER OF THE TEAK.
