THE SCHOOL SITUATION "To the Editor: "Consideration is being given to the construction of additional rooms to one of the schools in District 10, surrounding Woodstock. No doubt more schoolrooms are needed. However, more thought must be given to the size of,classrooms. To build classrooms which will accommodate only twenty-five pupils is ridiculous. If there happens to be thirty or thirtysix pupils in certain grades it would be financial extravagance to use two rooms and two teachers. We must allow for expansion - and we must not forget that tax bills are already almost "out of bounds." "A good teacher can handle thirty-six pupils if necessary. Parochial schools do good work with forty or more pupils per room. Lowering the number of pupils per teacher creates a demand for more teachers, thus causing a so-called "shortage." As an experienced teacher and administrator (retired) I would recommend school rooms to contain forty-two seats - six rows of desks and seven desks deep. There are times, naturally, where there would be fewer than thirty pupils in certain grades, but we must allow for expansion and emergencies. "In the news items about schools in District 10 there were some very good suggestions, namely r "1. Combine all of District 10 with the Woodstock district, thus forming a consolidated unit which would consist of the high school and all the grade schools "feeding" the high school. "2. Using the 6-6 plan, or if a Junior high school seems desirable, use the 6-3-3 plan - A I f f - % > %. •••***> t* , • « . « w % A < - * - » ' & ft :%p<: W *'^>.^ ;i: :> that is, six grades, three Junior high and three regular high grades. This plan would call for a Junior high building but it would leave room in the regular high school for more pupils and it would require fewer room additions td grade schools because the seventh and eight grades would be vacated and could be used for growing membership, and an addition to the high school could be postponed. "The 6-3-3 plan using grades 7-8-9 for Junior high puts pupils in a group having approximately the same social, psychological, physical and emotional characteristics. "No matter which plan is used we should definitely not build classrooms which could harbor only twenty-five pupils. Chicago Schools have fortyeight seats per room. The system averages about thirty-six pupils per teacher. "William T. Born "3228 E. Lake Shore Dr. "Wonder Lake, 111."
