MOST, IF not virtually all, instructors were hard at it in their classrooms, last week, whether it was sprucing up that room with attractive bulletin boards or getting down to business when it comes to planning the 180 class days ahead. For the first time, teachers were paid for their time at school--a- t least several days of the Legislature s career ladder funding that in Davis District includes days and the before school, at end of school. mid-ter- m M BUT AS three teachers at Knowlton Elementary School in Farmington noted, the fact teachers were hard at work a week before school bells signal students arrival was hardly new. We did it on our own time before, first grade teacher Betty Cassell said, as she, like most other teachers, concentrating on sorting out bulletin board materials while also organizing packets to give each student on that first day that was Monday. SOME OF her attention also was given over to two new first grade teachers at least new to that school and one new to the state. have to help give them a founda-tion-iimpossible for the principal to do all of that. Principal Lynn Stoddard, when questioned about activities of his teachers, said the flurry of activity was probably little different from other schools. The veteran principal, himself a new arrival after serv- ing at Whitesides in Layton for eight years, was also still getting used to his new surroundings. I ts I ALWAYS spend one and a half weeks, Vickie Kershaw, a veteran 3rd grade teacher said, adding Its nice to get a reward. I dont know of any who wouldnt be here even if career ladder funds werent used, she added. She, like her two counterparts, said part of the summer each year is spent in classes, whether theyre inservice courses offered by the district or elsewhere. Mrs. Cassell spent four weeks-- at her own a workshop in Louisiana, for instance. NEW IDEAS, new experiences are what a teacher can gain from such seminars, Mrs. Kershaw said, noting its hard for a college student studying education to Whals for school lunch? 4 WHEEL DRIVE CAREER LADDER whats actually needed until theyre out in the field.

It gives us a chance to really get ahead, Sybil OBrien said, enlisting the aid of a daughter to get some before-scho- ol preparations done. The 5th grade teacher said when the kids come really isnt the time for preparation. NOTING AN elementary teacher has to be ready to teach everything from mathematics to reading to music and physical education, Mrs. OBrien said part of her career ladder time would be spent correlating teaching assignments with the three other 5th grade teachers. typing shes done to help her Layton High School teacher husband get ready for the student onslought.

COUPON DELIGHTS - LAYTON Within the next week or two construction work on the asphalt strip of frontage between the downtown Layton business district buildings and the State highway travel lanes should begin. Last Thursday evening, the Layton City Council awarded a contract for the downtown rehabilitation project to the Bouchard Construction Company. There were only two bids submitted to the city for this particular job. Bouchard was the low bid with a figure of $185,439.88. THE WORK is being paid for through a CDBG grant that Layton received two years ago. In other council business, Phase 2 of the Victorian Oaks subdivision, located near SR 193 just east of Avion Vista, was approved subject to the developer installing a looped water line prior to any home construction. THE COUNCIL by a vote of 1 refused to declare .05 acres of property on Golden Ave. near the Hill Field Road surplus. Wayne Belleau wanted to purchase the property from the city to piece of property he acquired from a enlarge a triangular-shape- d citizen and from the state of Utah. He wants to build an office building and the .05 acre parcel would be landscaped or used for additional parking. The council reasoned that at some point in time, Gordon Ave. would have to be widened and property would have to be condemned. If the city retained ownership of this sliver of land, they would not have to purchase it at a later date. COUNCILMAN Kent Smith voted against the motion to keep the property. I think we need to have a big discussion over such a small piece of property, the councilman said. The council suggested that Mr. Belleau could lease the property from the city for a very reasonable price , maybe $50 a year, and then use it for parking or landscaping, dmg 11 No. Main, Kaysville 546-329- 11 No. Main, Kaysville 6 546-329- Family Special ,200 off Large Pizza Your Choice of 2 Toppings $95 Large Order Garlic Bread PLUS Large Fountain Drinks res Up 6 I Any Large Pizza to 6 Eat In Or Take Out Eat In Or Take Out Coming Soon LittleFastMexico from the owners of The Pizza Co.
