PG. 4; SEC. 2 - PIAINDEALER - AUGUST 10, 1967 RINGWOOD NEWS DOLOURS BRENNAN 658-9045 Consolidation Discussed By School District A petition has been filed with the McHenry County Board of School Trustees to consolidate Ringwood District No. 34 with McHenry District No. 15. Your Ringwood Board of Directors does not concur with this method of consolidation. In their regular June meeting your Board of Directors agreed that consolidation was the best method to solve our school problems, but rather than take the matter in their own hand and consolidate with any one of the three adjoining districts which by law they have the legal right to do, the matter would be decided at , the next school election in April, by a free and democratic vote of the citizens of the school district. If any person who is a re- * gistered voter in school dis- * trict 34 and wishes to have a voice in where their children go to school; where their tax money goes, or how their district operates and believes they signed the above mentioned petition by mistake, because A. Illegibility of the petition; B. Misunderstanding of the facts. C. Misleading statements of the circulator; contact one of your district directors, Vince Toqyan, Clayton Bruce or John Lanway, or attend the next regular meeting of your school board, which will be held on August 14 at 8 p.m. at the Ringwood school. Hie above was written by one of the board members and given to me to add to our column to bring all concerned H> to date as to what's happining. For all interested persons, please try to attend the coming meeting on Monday and find out first hand and ask questions if you wish.
