SEEK DOG THAT BIT YOUNG CHILD (Continued from page 1) been looking for the dog, which has been Men in the Lakeland park area. Mrs. Brackmann said that they have until Friday af­ ternoon to locate the dog before an appointment has to made for the first of the rabies shots. The dog was described as a shaggy-faced, all black dog of medium size wearing a red collar with silver studs. A McHenry hospital emergency room staffer said that Brackmann's injuries were "very minor" and could not say whether rabies treat­ ment would be called for. Dr. Johnson of the McHenry County Department of Health was unavailable for comment. The dog had reportedly bitten a small girl earlier in the week. Anyone with information concerning the dog should contact either Dr. Johnson, by calling 338-2040 and asking for the Health department, or the Animal Control center, at 338- 7040. APPROVE SCHOOL BUDGET (Continued from pagel) represented mostly payments to an ex-employee who had moved to another state when her husband was transferred. The unemployment com­ pensation people in the Department of Labor office had allowed the claim and pressed the district for payment. In actions by the board following an executive session, salary adjustments for the coming school year were ap­ proved. According to the superintendent, Dr. Richard Farmer, these increases were based on finance committee recommendations and ranged from $3,000 annually to 29 cents hourly. Covered were 85 em­ ployees ranging from superintendents to part time aides. The increases were in the 10 percent area and were computed to total ap­ proximately $73,980 with lower bracket employees making out better percentagewise than the top brackets. Teachers' were not included in the adjustments as the negotiations were not com­ pleted. Dr. Farmer predicted that the bargaining teams should complete their agreements during the early part of the coming school year. Acting on letters of concern from the Edgebrook school PTO, the board authorized soliciting bids for fencing the creek at that school because of possible hazard to small children. Dr. Farmer believed the expenditure, probably in the $3,000 range, could be made from developers' donations as site improvement. Siding for the "White House" school was okayed. It was also indicated that further discussion updated the District 15 position on the Irwin suit which seeks appropriate education for a gifted child. The court hearing date has now been reset to July 30. In other business the board accepted low bids for cafeteria supplies, bread, milk and ice cream and new furniture for Landmark school. Successful bidders were indicated as Kappus Bread company of Kenosha with prices of bread, .45; hamburger buns per dozen, .39, and hot dog buns, .39. Cary Dairy was awarded the milk bid at .1029 per half .pint of white; and Schoep's Ice Cream, Madison, Wis., bid low on ice cream supplies ranging from $1.10 per dozen dixie cups to $.70 per dozen of popsicles. Furniture bids were awarded to J.S. Latta Co., Cedar Falls, la., for $212.70; CFI Lowerey McDonnel, Park Ridge, for $1,269.50; and to Valley School Suppliers, Appletdh, Wis., for $2,041.40. Items being furnished include desks, chairs, tables and file cabinets. STUDY STATE review of high school addition plans. A final bid date of June 29 has been set. Many bids have been sent out, and the response to the bids is expected to be very good, because prospective bidders all indicated they top brackets. Teachers' would take part. salaries were not included in Some of the areas of work to be done will be bid as alter­ nates, so that there will be choices in the area of method and price. This should enable all work to be finished within the budget already set. Board member John Heidler moved that they accept bids and alternates as suggested. President pro-tem Robert Preston polled board members ' present and found out that June 29 would be acceptable as a date for a special meeting to accept high school addition bids. In response to a board question, Steve Pollock, building trades director, mentioned his satisfaction with the proposed construction plan and soundproofing of the vocational addition. He feels that it will also come within the budget. Approval was given to begin work to get state and regional approval for life safety work on Bush roof, with the entire amount budgeted to be used, and four areas to be bid as alternates. Frank Merrill and Mrs. Raymond Dahl, members of Lotus committee to study the feasibility of annexation, were present to exchange written answers with the Johnsburg board to questions of budget, philosophy and curriculum which each board posed to the other. It was suggested by Dr. Andreas that it would be dif­ ficult to set up a time line on any mutual action, since both administrations would have to take all aspects of the questions and answers into consideration. Dr. Andreas expressed em­ pathy with the problem, having gone through similar process with Ringwood, but regardless of the results of the questions and answers, he felt there were too many considerations to RECOMMENDATIONS ™kneUuSe (Continued from page 1) Representatives of the ar­ chitectural firm working on the high school presented a final of deadlines. An additional statement of board opinion on the questions and answers will be forthcoming at the next board meeting.

Two members of the writing lab, Lynn Lupo and Mike Davis, presented en­ tertaining and enlightening condensations of some of their work throughout the year. Asked to analyze the class, they mentioned the strengthening aspect of the structured and skills work which is geared to the individual student's level, and the balance of the creative work, such as the required journals. Both seemed to feel that the structure was sup­ portive of the gifted, average, and the student with greater needs. Pat Bingman, pupil per­ sonnel services director for the high school, mentioned that a program is being studied for the handling of the most dif­ ficult truancy cases in a cooperative effort with a Lake county center located in Grayslake. The initial thrust is prevention and the cost of $1,600 per pupil (to attend the school) is considered much less expensive than the cost to the district of counseling services required by such students. The program and money available is presently just being studied. During the executive session, Scott Seaborn, principal of the middle school, turned in his resignation. Seaborn has spent 10 years in the district, as a teacher, and as the first principal of the Middle school, and is desirous of a career change. He has been very in­ volved in paramedic work, and has accepted a position as emergency medical services coordinator for Lake-West McHenry county. Seaborn was one of the pioneers of a program in Johnsburg designed for multi- age grouping of children in areas of interest, also adjusted according to skill levels. Suggestions will be presented to the board at the next meeting by Dr. Andreas for a replacement, with the probability being that the person will come from within. • * * • The only unvarying law we know of is that on tipping.
