IOWA RURAL SCHOOL PLAN

Winnebago County.
TRANSPORTATION OF PUPILS IS A SUCCESS
Cenlrnl TimyhnIiIp School IlriiiK" Tlt

mni mid l.i'Hxciu-il Cunt of
Main! riiiiiit'r l'rr I'upll.
Hurnl transportation of pupils to a cen
tral township school Is one of the ends
toward which State Superintendent Darrctt
of Iowa is workltiK- At present thu system
Is carried out to any great extent In but
uno community In tho statu Buffalo town
nulp, Winnebago county but such Rood re
sults hnvo bceu obtained that as number of
other districts will consolidate this spring
nnd adopt tho plan.
Tho township school is located at Huffnlo
Center, Huffnlo township Is of tho usual
size six miles square and contntns nlno
school districts of four seel Ions each. Un
fortunately lluffalo Center is at tho ex
treme western edfio of tho township Instead
of boltiK near tho contcr. Seven of tho nlue
districts lu tbo township havo been merged
Into tho consolidated district, leaving only
tho districts in the extreme northeastern
nnd tho extreme southeastern corners with
tho slup'n school houso plan.
Tho contracts for tho present year call
for tho transportation of nincty-clght chil
dren. Six routes nro laid out and ono team
la provided (or eocli route. Tbo shorten
routo Is thrco and ono-fourth miles and
tho longest six and ono-fourth miles. Tho
nverago dlstnnco Is about four miles. Tho
roads In Winnebago county nro not so good
ns In many other parts of the stuto for tho
reason that tho country Is newer nnd tho
drainage less thorough.
When tho roadB nro very muddy or rough
tho drivers begin collecting tho chlldron at
7:15, whllo with good roads and a short
routo the driver does not start until ns Into
ns 8:15. Tho children nro returned homo
from 4:45 to C:45 p. m.
Tho drivers rccelvo $30 per month. Kor
this amount they nro required to furnish
their own properly covered, strong, safe,
sultablo vehicles, subject to tho approval
of tho board, with sultablo seats and a
strong, safe, quiet team, with propor hnr-
iness, with which to convey und collect
safely nnd comrortably an tno pupns 01
school ago on tho route, nnd to furnish
warm, comfortnblo blankets or robes sulll
clent for tho best protection nnd comfort
for each and all of tho pupils. The drivers
agree to collect nil of tho pupils on tho
routo by driving to their homes each morn
ing that school Is In session in Mine to con
voy tho pupils to school so ns not to ar
rive at tho building earlier than 8:30 a. in.
nor later than 8MB a. m.
Tho drivers nro required to personally
drive and manage the tenm and to refrain
from tho uso of uny profano or vulgar Inn
guago within tho hearing or presence of the
pupils, nor may they use tobacco In any
form during tho timo thoy nro conveying
tho chlldron to and from school. They aro
not permitted to drive tho team faster than
n trot nor to raco with any team, and are
required to keep order and report Improper
conduct on tho part of the pupils to tho
principal or president of the board.
To lasuro too Ultulul performance of tho
contract on tho part of tho driver ono-hulf
of tho preceding month's wages Is retained
by the bonrd.
KfT-t!t lit l'lii n on .Ylti'iiiliinee.
Tho nverago dally attendance, of tho
schools beforo tho consolidation was DO,
The schools wero In session but six months
of tho year.
For tho year ending September, 1!00,
eight tcncherB wero employed for nlno
months n year, whllo tho nverago dally at
tendance was 200. Estimating tho average
cost of tuition per month per pupil upon the
totnl expenditures for school purposes, It
Is found that tho cost under tho consolida
ted district was $2.31, as against $5.03 under
tho Btuglo district plan. Tho tax levy tor
tho district in 1900 was 0.6 mills for teach
ers' fund and 0.? mills for contingent fund.
Tho village of Huffnlo Center, according
to tho last census, has a population of 375.
Tho present school building was erected
In 1S36 nt a cost of $17,000. Great care was
taken in regard to sanitation. Tho very
latest and best methods of heating, lighting
and ventilation uro used. Tho building con
tains a water supply throughout, with clos
ets in tho basement nnd room for children
to play during stormy weather. There nro
nlno rooms, exclusive of an auditorium and
a library filled with tho choicest books.
.Vririiuii'ii tx in I'uvnr of I'lnn.
Tho following arguments nro being ad
vanced for consolidation and township
graded schools:
1. Hotter grading of schools and classifi
cation of pupils.
2. Affords an opportunity for work In
speclnl branches, such as drawing, music
and nnturo study.
3. Open doors to moro schooling and to
schools of higher grade.
4. Insures tho employment and retention
of better teachers,
i
C. Mukcs tho work of n specialist far
moro effective.
C. Adds tho stimulating Influence of largo
clusscs.
7. Affords broader companionship.
8. Itcsults in better attendance of pupils.
9. Leads to better school buildings, bet
tor equipment, n larger supply of books,
charts, maps nnd apparatus.
10. Quickens Interest In tho public
schools.
Tho state laws of Iowa ns nmended by
a recent net of tho general assembly en
courngo tho consolidation of rural districts,
tho building of a central tnwnBhlp graded
school and tho transportation of pupils.

FREE HIGH SCHOOL LAW
Suptrintsndcnt Pane EnUri Into Exttndtd
Diiounion.
TAtKS OF VARIOUS PHASES OF MEASURE
Head of Omaha Scliooln Kmlorncs Hut
."t'v l.iiiv anil Suy It Ik (lie
ItcMiilt of Mneli l.'n re
fill Sliiily.
"Tho free high school law passed by tho
legislature Is qulto generally approved by
educators and promises to do awny with
thu necessity of establishing county high
schools,' Superintendent l'earso of tho
Omaha public schools remarked after read
ing a copy of tho new law which Stato
Superintendent Kowler bus had printed and
distributed uinong school authorities. "It
provides," tho superintendent continued,
"for opening approved high schools to per
sons living In othor school districts In tho
same county. Tho law will probably result
In much bcuotlt to thu existing high schools
rather than lu thu establishment of new
schools and tho duplication of Institutions
that can nreommodnto uddltlonnl pupils
with slight expenditure of money.
Will i:leml IIIkIi Si'lim.U.
"This law will probably make high
echools possible In somo localities where
thu population Is too small to Justify tha
mulntcnnuce of such n school for ono dis
trict. Tho right to open it high school to
uuu-rcsldeiil pupils is vestoi in bom da of
i
education. This prevents pupils from bolng
forced on schools which nro not prepared to
accommodato them. A mnjorlty of tho
voters In districts which deslro to avail
themselves of high school privileges must
signify their willingness beforo n tnx ran
bo levied to pay tho tuition of pupils who
deslro to avail themsolvcs of better schools
than uro afforded in their homo districts."
Tho tax levied on any district to pay for
tho tuition of pupils wliu deslro to attend
a high school In another district cannot
exceed 2 mills. No district will bo com
pelled to pay moro than 75 cents per week
per pupil for high Bchool tuition. In enso
any school asks tuition In excess of thll
amount tho parents of pupils must bear tbo
additional uxponbc.
I'lirpimc of I lie I.uw.
Tho purposo of tho law Is to make dis
tricts in which deslrnblo high schools nru
located adjunct districts of tho dltsrlota
which nro located in tho samo county nnd
have no high schools. No high school
which has not been approved by tho stato
'superintendent will bo allowed to open Its
doors to non-restdont pupils, under tho pro
visions of this law.
I "Thlb law is tho outgrowth of much
thought nnd study of school needs on tho
ipart of Nebraska educators," said Mr.
I'earse. "Hills of various sort seeking
this same end hnvo been beforo Ncbrnbka
i legislatures for several sessions. Fault
1 was found with all of them and this
