Another highlight of the board meeting, lasting for more than an hour and attended by Parent Teacher Association presidents and other Interested persons, was the discussion of the exclusion clause for pregnant girls and married students In the district Dr. J. C. Haws, Superintendent, explained to the board of the existing need of the vocational building and the condition of the shops at the present time. Kleon Kerr, Buildings and Grounds, presented an unbiased engineer's report on the condition of the roof, floor and the masonry in the building. The Superintendent's recommendation and Mr. Kerr's report promoted Board Member Dr. Arnold Gilbert, Brigham City, to motion that the board refund $725,000 and handle the recommended priorities. Member Ralph Carter, seconded that and it received the unanimous vote of the table. Supt Haws cautioned the board that with the refunding the board cannot refund for another six years. Several months ago, DickCh-- 1 ristensen, Burrows, Smith and company, Salt Lake City, financial consultant to the board, reluctantly advised the board that another refund was possible but advised against the practice. Two years ago the board refunded $830,00 for the construction ofthe McKinley Elementary school at South Park, ft will be ready for occupancy prior to the next school year. The refunding will make way for the new central heating system at Bear River high school. . Mr. Kerr advised the board that it has been a continuous job of expensive maintenance due to the age of the system. Supt Haws noted that the Park Valley Elementary school was in need of some remodeling and possibly adding a room. Grouse Creek was also discussed and the board agreed that both elementary schools will remain special schools for years to come. The amount to be expended at the far western schools will be determined by the remain- ing balance after the vocational building and heating system are figured for the Bear River high school. In refunding the $725,000, however, a leeway may exist for the Board to proceed with planning at the elementary sc- - Notice The Bear River Valley Chamber of commerce is in need of a list of names of men and women who would be available to work in an industry which Is considering locating in Tremonton.

Although the board has been aware of the long standing policy of excluding pregnant girls and married students from attending the regular classes in the district's secondary schools, Member Ralph Carter motioned, based on the humanitarian factor, to amen the policy and not exclude those students. In his plea for the action, Member Carter, explained that the programs offered to those excluded students is not comparable to a high school education. "This policy will not stand up in court and these are the students that need help," Member Carter said. Supt Haws stated that " all schools have pulled away from such a pollcy....we're one of a few...haven't found one district with our type of policy.... I never heard of such a policy when I got here Principals from the district's four secondary schools were present at the meeting as well as presidents of PTAs.

He said, "her husband is now finishing there. I need clarification of the policy. If a girl has one year left, has a baby and comes back and wants to attend school, what then?" Haws answered that Supt "If she is not married and not pregnant, take her back." When Alice Johnson, PTA president was asked to comment she replied that to take the matter back to the parents for further study, "that would mean war. No two people agree. Myself, Pd like to see the board Parents make the decision. can't solve this." Member Varsel Chlarson remarked "leave it like it Is." Member Gilbert replied that perhaps "the board should take another look at it and study the matter." Board President Delores Stokes asked If it could become a matter of "feed back to the board and get more information. Take it back to the PTA for their reactions." per. In his summation for a positive move, Member Carter reiterated a statement made by PTA President Johnson.
