The board also discussed dis-cussed the educational program and organization of schools on the west side of the county and decided on two tentative proposals propos-als to present to the school patrons pat-rons of the district. No definite action was taken at the special board meeting but a public hearing has been called for Friday, March 4 at 7:30 p.m. at the Alterra School. At this time the tentative proposals of the Board of Education will be made, both in regard to financing and the type of school organization organiza-tion to be undertaken. All interested inter-ested persons are invited to be in attendance at this meeting. However, How-ever, communities and organizations organiza-tions are requested to be represented repre-sented by a spokesman in order that the -discussion may proceed in an orderly manner and that all groups may have a chance to be heard.
