Teachers Receive Super intendant Talmage Taylor Tay-lor recently announced that the Millard County Board of Education Ed-ucation has awarded teacher leadership grants to 13 local teachers. Superintendent Taylor said that the 1970 session of the legislature set aside one million mil-lion dollars to be "utilized ... to pay for the highest quality of teaching and secure a high level of professional accountability account-ability to the youth and'eitizens of the state." Every teacher with at least three years experience in the local district was given an opportunity to apply. However, only 13 could be selected because be-cause of the limited amount of money available. Accordingly Accord-ingly this group represents a small proportion of the outstanding out-standing teachers in our district. In order to meet state minimum mini-mum requirements, the local selection committee had to ask each teacher to describe his program in terms of hisobjec- . tives for himself as a teacher, and for his students. He further had to describe the program he was conductingto achieve those objectives, and what he would do to evaluate his program In terms of the legislative Intent. Teachers were selected by a local committee including members of tne School Board, the local teacher's association, school administrators and district dis-trict stafi. Superintendent Taylor further fur-ther noted that the first evaluation evalua-tion of leadership projects was just being completed in the schools. Each leadership teacher has been Invited to bring materials and demonstrations demon-strations to evaluating teams composed of the school principal, princi-pal, board members, parents, students and fellow teachers.

Around this simple premise, Christian and non-Christian non-Christian may join and make this season one of united purpose. Peace and Goodwill summarize our hopes and aspirations for all of the world. Hopefully, the recent beginnings toward peace in our troubled world will be recorded in history as actions which led to an end of the shooting and the beginning of accord. As for Goodwill, the derisiveness of the election campaign and the civil disorders of the past months have not brought us together. All rational men must seek workable alternatives which preserve the dignity of man and recognize that the public sense of right and w rong cannot be ignored. Mutual tolerance and understanding can be Mankind's Man-kind's greatest Christmas gift to itself. 1he Olditinvi to m "It's not those Mho lie awake nights that succeed, but those who stay awake days." r - gocietu liverlng approximately 240,000 of the hospital banks throughout Utah.
