Haliwa School Also Affected By Fed.Ruling A ruling of the U. S. Office of Education forbidding the transfer of pupils across dis trict lines may result In the Littleton High School being ad ministered by Halifax County Instead of Warren County. The same ruling would affect the operation of the Haliwa School at Bethlehem where a majority of students are from Halifax County. It Is doubtful that any change in the administration of the schools could be made this year, although this possibility has not b?n completely dismissed by? the Warren County Board of Ed ucation which dlscussetrpfob lems of the Littleton school at length at lta meeting Monday night. Warren Supt. J. Rodger Peel er quoted a letter he had re cently reoelved from W, Henry Overman, Superintendent of the Halifax County schools: "In order to get a plan of compliance with the civil rights act approved by the U. S. Office of Education, the Halifax Coun ty Board of Education was re quested to have a statement in the plan as follows: "No pupils residing In the Halifax County Administrative Unit will attend public school in any other administrative unit except those pupils who are In attendance In school outsttde the unit during the 1964-65 school year and those who attend the John Armstrong Chaloner School In Roanoke Rapids Unit, nor will any child not residing In the Halifax County Admin istrative Unit attend public school In this unit except those who have done so In 1964-65 and elect to continue there." Peeler explained to the board that this action by the Halifax Board of Education means that no new students from Halifax County, including first graders, will be permitted to enter the Littleton and the Haliwa Schools during the 1965-66 term. A possible solution to this problem suggested by the board of education Monday night was that new district lines might be drawn for these two schools, covering territory in both coun ties, but administered by either Halifax or Warren County. The discussion was largely confined to the operation of the Littleton school, where there OSee RULING, page I) No Colored Teachers Unemployed In County No Negro teachers have lost their jobs as the result of In tegrating the schools of Warren County, J. Roger Peeler, super intendent of schools, told the members of the board of edu cation Monday night. He said that while decreased average dally attendance had reduced the number of teachers in some Negro schools, that he was happy to report that the allotment of 11 extra teachers by the state had enabled the county to keep all Its teach ers who desired to teach In Its system.

Norllna - 1 to reduce the teacher load In the elementary ?chool. Littleton - 1 to reduce the teacher load In the elementary school. Vaughan - 1 to reduce the teacher load In the elementary school.
