Desegregation of Faculty
And Other Staff:
The School Board shall an
nounce and implement the fol
lowing policies:
The principals, teachers,
teacher-aides and other staff
who work directly with children
at a school shall be so assigned
for the school year 1970-71 and
subsequent years that in no case
will the racial composition of
a staff indicate that a school
is intended for Negro students
or white students. For the 1970-
71 school year the district shall
assign the staff described above
so that the ratio of Negro to
white teachers in each school,
and the ratio of other staff in
each, are substantially the same
as each such ratio is to the
teachers and other staff, res
pectively, in the entire school
system. In determining the rat
io, exceptions may be made for
specialized faculty positions.
The school district shall, to
the extent necessary to carry
out this desegregation plan, dir
ect members of its staff as a
condition of continued employ
ment to accept new assign
ments.
Staff members who work dir
ectly with children, and profes
sional staff who work on the
administrative level will be hir
ed, assigned, promoted, paid,
demoted, dismissed, and other
wise treated without regard to
race, color, or national origin,
except to the extent necessary
to correct discrimination.
If there is to be a reduction
in the number of principals,
teachers, teacher-aides, or other
professional staff employed by
the school district which will
result in a dismissal or demot
ion of any such staff members,
the staff member to be dis
missed or demoted must be sel
ected on the basis of objective
and reasonable non-discrimina-
tory standards from among all
the staff of the school district.
In addition if there is any such
dismissal or demotion, no staff
vacancy may be filled through
recruitment of a person of a
race, color, or national origin
different from that of the in
dividual dismissed or demoted
until each displaced staff mem
ber who is qualified has had an
opportunity to fill the vacancy
and has failed to accept an offer
to do so.
School Construction
And Site Selection
The size and location of new
school buildings and additions
to existing buildings can signi
ficantly affect desegregation
now and in the future.
All school construction, school
consolidation, and site selection
(including the location of any
temporary classrooms) in this
system shall be done in a man
ner which will prevent the re
currence* of the dual school
structure once this desegrega
tion plan is implemented.
Majority to Minority
Transfer Policy:
Whenever there shall exist
schools containing a majority of
Negro students, this school dis
trict shall permit a student (Ne
gro or white) attending a school
in which his race is in the maj
ority to choose to attend an
other school where space is
available, and where his race
is in a minority.
Attendance Outside System
Of Residence:
If the School District grants
transfers to students living in
the district for their attendance
at public schools outside the
district, or if it permits trans
fers into the district of stu
dents who live outside the dis
trict, it shall do so on a non-
discriminatory basis, except that
it shall not consent to transfers
where the cumulative effect will
reduce desegregation in either
district or reinforce the dual
school system.

YOUR SOCIAL
SECURITY
To all who may be thinking
about retiring the social secur
ity office offers these helpful
hints:
Inquire before you retire—to
get the facts you need from a
social security specialist; facts
that mav help you in making
your retirement decision, as
well as in filing your applica
tion for benefits later.
Contact the Social Security of
fice three months before you
retire, if you’re 62 or over. Also
get in touch with our office
three months before you’re 62",
if you’re already “retired”, or
three months before age 60 if
you’re a widow. By all means
contact the Social Security Of
fice before you’re 65 to file for
Medicare, even if you’re still
working.
You’ll need to have certain
evidence or proofs to complete
your claim. In the absence of
an original birth certificate or
baptismal certificate, other old
records or documents such as
a census record, family Bible
record, or old insurance policy
may be acceptable as evidence
of your age. Also a marriage
certificate and birth certificates
of children may be needed. The
social security employee will
tell you if any additional evi
dence is required.
Have your social security card
(and also the cards, or verified
correct numbers, of your wife
or children for whom applica
tions are filed), and the correct
dates of birth, marriage, or
death.
Also have your latest W-2 slip
(statement of earnings and tax
es withheld) or, if you were
self-employed, a copy of your
Federal income tax return.Be
able to tell us how much you
have earned to date in the year
of retirement, and the expected
total earnings for the year.
