PAGE 4—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, July 18, 1968 Elimination of Dual Schools (Continued from page 1) will be totally integrated. Ap proximately 85 students from Rikard and three Negro teach ers will be assigned to Little Mountain. All available classroom spact at Mid-Carolina high will be ut ilized to house approximately fi5 Negro students from this area who have been attending Gall- man high. At least two Negrc teachers will be assigned to the Mid-Carolina faculty. There will be a minimum of 11 of the administrative and supporting staff (librarians, music, supervisors, etc.) work ing across racial lines. In ad dition, there will be 28 full time classroom teachers across racial lines for the 1968-1969 school session. Buses will be integrated and routed in such a manner as to serve pupils attending schoois as stated above. Plans for 1969-70 in detail: Whitmire: All pupils in grades 1—4 will attend Park Street; all pupils in grades 5- 8 will attend Carver (Negro school); students in grades 9— 12 will attend W'hitmire High. Silverstreet-Bush River: Reu ben School would be closed; al students in grades 1—8 will at tend either Silverstreet or Bush River School. Newberry: It is expected that a new senior high school would be constructed to house all stu dents in grades 9—12. The pres ent Newberry high building would be used for all students in giades 7 and 8. All students in grades 1—4 would attend Boundary and Speers; the Gallman High would house all students in grades 5 and 6. In the event the bond issue fails to pass and funds are not available for the new senior high bujlding. the following would apply: The present Newberry high would house all students in grades 9—12. All students in grades 7 and 8 would attend Gallman. The present Junior high building would house stu dents in grades 5 and 6. All students in grades 1—4 would attend Boundary and Speers.

All students in the 7th and 8th grades in the lower part of the county would attend Garmany. Mid-Carolina: All high school pupils in grades 9—12 in the lower part of the county would attend Mid-Carolina High. This would totally integrate this area as far as high school students are concerned. This would ne cessitate, however, the construc tion of several additional class rooms. Faculty: Faculty will be as signed across racial lines on the basis of teacher qualifications. As vacancies occur, they will be filled without regard to race, color, or national origin. The faculty and students will be pre-conditioned for the 1969- 70 session as far as possible. MRS. C. L.
