Silverstreeters Would Keep Their High School The patrons of Silverstreet school, arouSed by the possibility of retaining a high school in their area, turned out in large numbers to attend the public meeting call ed last Thursday evening by the Silverstreet Advisory Board, Jeff Waldrop, chairman of the Bo#rd, presided. Mr. Waldrop stating the purpose of the meeting said "... is tq try to get the patrons together and see whether anything .can be done to save the high school at Silver- street.” He went on to say “our neighbors (referring to Bush Riv er) started work to save theirs.” Richard C. Neel, Jr., member of the Newberry County Board ol Education from the Silverstreet area, reviewed the county board meeting of February 28, an ac count of which was contained in last week’s Sunpaper and told the gioup “the inference was made that our school was in apqord” with closing Silverstreet high and allowing the students to go to Bush River High.. “I came back and told the ad visory Board what had taken place,” Mr. Neel continued, “and it is on their advice that you are here.” John Grady Long, area super intendent, then read the 13 page statement which was presented to the County Board by Bush River representatives last week. Those Silverstreet patrons who had at tended the county board meeting in company with the Bush River group explained that the only reason they joined that group was that they had been told the Sil verstreet school was definitely closing, and they were interested in having a rural school to which they could send their children. Mr. Neel explained that until recently, the county board mem bers had been under the impres sion that no school could be ac credited or built with a student potential of less than 250. In the light of recent information that schools with less than 250 stu dents had been accredited, he ex plained that members of the board were going to Columbia to talk with officials of the State De partment of Education and The State Finance Commission to find if there was any possible way to retain the rural schools in the county. -.WILLIAM R.
