Four Page Sanpete June Shopper 1990 13, - Legislature wants schools to be more accountable SALT LAKE CITY In return for a more generous educational funding package, the 1990 Utah Legislature re- -, quired greater accountability and moved toward a program that will encourage the use of computers and other educational technology in the public schools. This was reported by Utah Foundation, the private research organization, in a study which analyzed the educational bills approved by the legislature. According to the report, total regular appropriations for public and higher education were raised by $111.2 million, and this accounted for nearly of the total added made permanent funding available for all state purposes during the 1990-9- 1 fiscal year. In addition, education also received $64.2 million in special one-tisupplements from surplus state funds. Thus, the total increased funding for education provided this year amounted to $$175.4 million, the largest single one-yein- two-thir- ds me ar NEED CAT WORK?

Preliminary allocations included in the Foundation report indicate that the North Sanpete School District will receive $5,291,590 in school operating funds for the 1990-9- 1 school year. These funds will be allotted for approximately 2,991 weighted pupil units (WPUs) during the year, and is estimated that the North Sanpete Districts share of these funds will equal about $1 ,769 per WPU. South Sanpete will receive $6,393,808 in operating funds allotted for about 3,699 WPUs and is estimated the South San- pete Districts share of these funds will equal about $1 ,769 per WPU. Total education spending authorized by the legislature for the upcoming fiscal year amounted to $1,574,394,384. This included $1,174,267,084 for public education and $398,129,300 for higher education. The 1990-9- 1 education funding package represents an increase of about 7.6 percent above the amount made available in 1989-9- 0. These amounts, however, do not in- clude funds from local and other nonstate sources. A number of measures were enacted that will require greater accountability by local schools and the State Office of Education. A statewide testing program will be established for all students in grades 5,8, and 1 to determine how effective the schools are in assisting students to master the fundamental educational skills. Local school districts will be required to develop and issue annual performance reports yhich will analyze (a) achievement 1 462-204- 7 SWIMMING LESSONS . ed norm-referenc- SECOND SAVE - fJElV SESSION JUNE 25 Extensive Nursing Care Insurance Plan with Blue Cross & Blue Shield 436-863- 3 For Information On Benefits FLO Call MITCHELL Insurance Group 435 S.
