Ms V Approximately one hoadred Duplin County Citizens met In ? the Kenansvllle Elementary Sc hool auditorium on Monday nigt, November 17, to organ ize for a status study of the Duplin County Schools. In view of new and ever changing problems facing to day's Chi] dren and youth, the administration of the school, with the concurrence and sup port of interested citizens, re quests that the Duplin County Board initiate a study designed to evaluate and Improve the County's schools. Realizing that the efforts of lay and pro fessional study groups made a significant impact on the ed ucational program in Duplin County between 1963 and 1956, it Is recommended that this same type of community wide involvement be emphas ized in this proposed endeavor. Major conclusions resulting from the earlier study follow: Community leadership is most effective in improving community living and education when there Is an organized and systematic method of study local prdhlafns. The main function of educat ional leadership is to release the power that lies within the community for school improve ment. Lay and professional parti cipation in educational planning can lead to better solutions of local problems and concerns, improved public understanding, and additional support for sch ools. These conclusions are reco mmended as guiding principles for conducting this proposed project in view of past suc cessful experiences in Duplin County in the area of cooper ative involvement and in view * growing cionsensus among educational leaders and Icy ci tizens that Involvement?the drawing of other as participants la the best approach yet found for genuine improvement in ed ucation.
