Member Cal Skinner, Sr., in commenting on the report, pointed to the complications that will result from the con solidated elections in 1979. Skinner asserted it is important to go to electronic voting rather than vote in a different manner as is now the case (paper ballots for school elections, electronic for primary and general elections). Others agreed and said they would urge this action by the Legislature.

Student Self- Scheduling is now taking place at East and West campus. During this process students build their class schedule for next year. Students have already been reviewing what courses they should take with their teachers, counselors, and parents. In Self-Scheduling they simply choose when they wish to take classes from the master schedule. Not every student can get every class wanted due to class size limitations. For this reason the process of Self-Scheduling sometimes is a challenge to the student. Student Course Request Direct Schedule During the beginning of the second semester students in dicated what courses they would take for the next school year. -From this information the high school schedule builders, Roger Zawacki at East, and Earl Kyle at West, assist the principals in developing the master schedule. This master schedule is sent to computer facilities where it is processed and the materials needed for Student Self-Scheduling are made. So, when a student goes into Self- Scheduling it is not to choose what classes will be taken, but rather when the classes will be taken. After the Self- Scheduling is done the material is sent back to the computer facility where the students' final schedules are printed.
