Plass for desegregation of Davie County Schools in ac cordance with Title VI of the Civil Right Act of 1964 are being announced tbifl week by the Davie County Board of Educa'.ian. The full test of these plana are set forth in an advertisement ap pearing in this issue. James E Everidge, Super intendent of Davie County Schools, said that in essence Davie was operating under the same plan (freedom of choice) as last year. "Each student of his par. ent, or other adult person ac ting as parent, is required to choose the school the stud ent will attend next school year. The choice period will begin on March 17th and close April 15, 1966", said Mr. Everidge. Mr. Everidge said that the local office of the board of education was mailing out an explanatory letter to the parent, or one acting as par ent, of each student now in the schools who is expected to attend school the follow ing school year. A school choke will be sent with each letter, together with a re turn envelope addressed to the Superintendent The choice form may be signed by a parent or other adult person acting as par ent. A student who has reactk ed the age of 15 at the time of choice, or will next entei the ninth or any higher grade may sign his own choice form. "No choice will be denied for any reason other than overcrowding," said Mr. Ev»- eridge. "In cases where grant, ing all choices for any school weald ,cause oveiuueJiut " the student choosing the school who live closest to it will be assigned to that school". All students and their par ents will be promptly noti fied in writing of their school assignments. Should any stud ent be denied his choice be cause of overcrowding will be promptly notified and given a choice among all othel schools in the system where space is available. The parent of every child entering the first grade is re quired to choose the school his child will attend. Choices will be made under the same free choice process used for students new to the school system in other grades. Once a choice has been sub mitted it may not be changed even though the choice peri od has not needed. The choice is binding for the entire school year to which it ap plies, except is the case if (1) compelling hardship; (2) change of residence to a place where another school is clos er (3) the availability of a school designed to fit the special needs of a physically handicapped student; (4) the availability at another school of a course of study required by the student, which is not available at the school chos en. Mr. Everidge pointed out that the Davie County High School had certain courses not given at every school in the system. These were listed as follows: Advanced compo sition and appreciation; con sumer math i; business math; advanced math; advanced science; geography, economics and sociology; Spanish; indus trial arts; distributive educa tion; and introduction to vo cations. The plan for desegrega tion provides that it is a violation for any school of. ficial or teacher to influence or coerce any person in the making of a choice or to threaten any person with pe nalties or promise favors for any choice made. It is also a violation of Federal law for any person to intimidate, unbeaten, coerce, retalianoe or discriminate against soy individual for the purpose of interfering with the free mafc- f ing of a choice of school. i HDCLUE 7&JJh The Cooleemc* Home 0% 1 monstration Chd> wall mail a on Friday night, Much i at the home of Mrs. A.
