Annually Semi FRIENDLY SERVICE SINCE 1905 OS What The Current Controversy In Utah Education tion Means T To YOU As A Parent I The present situation in Utah re- re suits from the neglect of the state to provide adequately for its public schools This has resulted in the inability inability in in- ability of our local school districts to furnish the services supplies and equipment equipment equip equip- ment and to pay reasonable salaries to teachers necessary for a quality educational tonal Honal program for your children For the past fifteen years teachers have pleaded and begged the Legislature Legislature Legislature Legisla Legisla- ture for more nearly adequate public school financing Many legislators worked untiringly for the support of the educational program but for the most part the pleas of the teachers have fallen on deaf ears For the past eighteen months the Cooperating Agencies for the Public Schools Utah School Boards Association Association Association tion Utah Congress of Parents and Teachers Utah Education Association Soci Society ty of School Superintendents an and Utah State Department of Public Instruction Instruction Instruction In In- have been united in their request for legislation which would bring Utah up to the average of our neighboring states in expenditure per pupil This would have required an increase increase in in- crease in our educational investment of per child hild in average average daily attendance per y year ar This it was agre agreed d was as a minimum program and anda a minimum goal However CAPS' CAPS proposal was not allowed to come out of the House of Representatives Representative's Sifting Sifting Sifting Sift Sift- ing Committee In other words the CAPS' CAPS BILL WAS NEVER FULLY CONSIDERED Those who opposed the CAPS' CAPS program throughout t the e recent session of the Legislature are now saying over and over that education received the greatest single appropriation ever given Utah's schools The fact is that it will not take us even half the distance from where we are now to the average of the seven surrounding Mountain States Regardless of the efforts of some to gloss over that unpleasant reality by attempting to make it appear that something has been done which has not been done at all all Utah's unfavorable unfavorable unfavorable able condition in education remains Your children are being denied a quality education Superintendents cannot solve the problem by changing changing the the method of distribution by a greater proportion of available money to teachers' teachers salaries TEACHERS ARE INTERESTED IN THE TOTAL EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM NOT JUST IN THEIR SALARIES ALONE It is our best estimate that Utah's school expenditures under the legislation legislation legislation legisla legisla- tion passed by the 1963 regular session of the Legislature will lag next year yearby yearby yearby by more that 70 per pupil annually behind the average of the other surrounding sur surrounding rounding Mountain States By 1965 this lag once again will be approximately approximately approximately per pupil The CAPS' CAPS pr program gram for education lion tion is I. a realistic program which was wa cooperatively arrived at by thoughtful thought ful ul people working with all available data It Is Ie not a luxury program and by no means unrealistic While some contend that the in way to solve the educational problem is to go on with school as usual until the differences can be reconciled reconciled rec rec- it must be remembered that the teachers have been patient through fifteen years of such negotiations They have hav tried in every way possible to resolve resolve re re- solve the problem without disruption of service However all efforts have been futile and

Legislature when needed The Governor has indicated that one is needed now Utah's educators educators educators tors believe that the problem of school finance needs to be on the agenda of ofa a
