Show Alpine School District Reports Changes Made Changes were made in. the Supervisory Personnel of Alpine School District at the monthly meeting of the Board of Education held recently. Llyod B. Adamson will continue as Director of Instruction and Supervisor of Senior High Schools. Elliot C. Howe will be the new Supervisor of Junior High Schools and Foreign Languages. Margaret Johnson, who has been on leave of absence from the District the past year to do graduate work at Columbia Col-umbia University, New York, will return to the district and assume the responsibilities of Supervisor of Intermediate Grades and Art. Alice -Parker will continue as Supervisor of Primary Grades and Music and Ellen Brown as Supervisor Super-visor of Adult Education. The Board of Education decided to eliminate practice driving from the driver training program of the district until such a time that state funds are made available for the program. Dicussion of highway rules and regulations and other phases of the driving program will continue to be a part of the instruction in-struction offered by the district. Plans were approved for the Lindon Elementary school addition, addit-ion, which is to include an all-purpose all-purpose room and space for the exceptional child program. Bids will be opened at the next meeting of the Board on April 16. Due to the present Board ruling that all employees shall retire upon up-on arriving at age 65. it is necessary necess-ary that K. J. Bird be released as Supervisor of Music for the Alpine School District. After careful study, the Board reached a decision to discontinue the special music program with reference to instruction being given on string instruments. This year special teachers have been instructing students on string instruments. For this year, the Board of Education Edu-cation asked the administration to study the possibility of having some one person in each school assigned the responsibility of giving giv-ing string instruction and that the principal teach his regular class during that hour. In keeping with the above plan, the special teachers of music and dancing will be assigned regular to classroom instruction in the Elementary School of the district. The Elementary foreign language langu-age prgram will go forward the same as this year. |
