Board members decided to go this route after discussing various methods of publicizing the information and deciding that the specific information should come from the state's 40 local school districts.

Parents Are Confused "Most parents are confused about the state and local school board requirements, said Margaret Nelson, a board member. Our effort to disseminate the information should reach out through the districts," she said, pointing out many of the districts have their own requirements in addition to the state board's graduation requirements. "I agree we will have to deal with local requirements," said Dr. Ken- communicate directly with the teachers rather than through the teacher's union. Specific Information Board members agreed that the state school office should develop some generally phrased public service announcements acquainting citizens that changes have been made and recommending their local districts as their source for specific-information- the board agreed with Maxfield's suggestion and in structed the state school office to devote an upcoming issue of Utah Schools to a detailed explanation of its reform efforts and to mail copies to the state's school teachers. The state board's high school graduation requirements call for a minimum of 24 credits, 15 of them from a general core of subjects and nine required electives which can be comprised of high interest subjects, a college entry cluster of classes or technology vocational job entry classes. General C'jre Area In the general core area, three units of English, two of math, two of science, a half unit of computer studies, three units of social studies, 1.5 units of arts, two units of healthy lifestyles and fitness, and one unit of vocational education are required. The college entry cluster of courses should include two units of foreign language, one unit of mathematics. one unit of English, one of science, and four of electives. The technology vocational job entry cluster of classes can include either four units in a technical core of courses, five units in a vocational core, or five units in a job entry core. In addition, the cluster should include a half unit of computer science and the remainder made up of 3.5 or 4.5 units of electives, depending on whether a student chooses the technical core or one of the other two cores. Moreover, Darlene Hutchison, a board member, said the some public service announcements should be developed and designed to create awareness that some changes have been made in high school graduation requirements and urge parents to contact their local school districts for specific information. Mrs. Nelson said it is a valid function of the board to publicize the graduation requirements, but said specific information about which classes and how many credits a child needs should be provided by the local districts. Teacher Pay Reforms M. Richard Maxfleld, the board's vice chairman, said a similar confusion exists among many teachers regarding career ladders and other reforms approved by the state school board, and suggested an issue of Utah Schools, the state school office's news publication, be entirely-devoteto the board's reform package and given to teachers. Dr. Kendell said the newsletter, published seven times a year, is regularly bulk mailed to schools and their respective principals provide copies to teachers. Neola Brown, a board member, said some teachers don't get copies. Oscar McConkie, the board's chairman, said the special issue ifTiriiTriTiagTTfTmnTirifi J9Q BALLOONS!
