St'tV OF JOHNSBURG SCHOOL DISTRICT 12 PAGE 17 - I REMEMBER TBS soosoimrs PLAINDEALER-WEDNE8DAY, DECEMBER It, 1V74 This is to inform citizens that a committee of ten Johnsburg school district citizens, and other interested citizens of Johnsburg District No. 12, circulated petitions concerning the formation of a separate unit district within the present confines of the Johnsburg School District 12. The petitioners were able to secure approximately 400 signatures within a relatively short length of time concerning the concept. Therefore, after a committee of ten meeting attended by a consultant from the Illinois Consultant Service, it was decided to file the petition with the superintendent of educational service region, Richard L. Tazewell. It appears at this time a hearing by Mr. Tazewell in relation to the formation of a separate unit district within the present confines of the John­ sburg Public School District 12 school district boundaries will be held sometime in March, 1975. In the meantime, a Johnsburg area citizens' committee of about forty people will study all aspects concerning the formation of a separate K-12 school district within the present boundary confines of Johnsburg Public School District 12. An outside consultant will chair the meetings and lead the study. The results of the feasibility study will be made available to the public upon its completion. Other Johnsburg school news in relation to the above study includes the fact that Dewey Lytle, president of the John­ sburg school PTO appeared at the last board meeting to report that he had polled all twenty-six members of the PTO Executive committee All agreed to the direction the board and ad­ ministration was taking in relation to the feasibilitv study From Fronia Mannon, Win slow, Arkansas: At 84 I can still re­ member going one mile away, down the most beautiful country wagon road I ever saw, to visit my grandmother. It was a road through shady virgin timber, lined and bordered in summer with all sorts of wild flowers. And how we enjoyed grand­ mother's biscuits.' Made only with soda for leavening, no baking powder, and with fresh sweet butter for shortening, baked in a dutch oven before the big fire­ place. We'd see grandmother smoking a little five cent clay pipe she got from my Dad's store. She lit it from a coal in the fireplace. We enjoyed sleeping in the little trundle bed on cold winter nights with only hard slats, no bed springs, only a corn-shuck mattress that rattled. We'd watch the fireplace at night. and the idea for a high school in the Johnsburg district. Lytle indicated that some legitimate questions are being generated that will need ex­ ploring and answering. The board and ad­ ministration response was that this is the interest of a thorough citizen feasibility study at this time. from HISTORY'S SCRAPB00K - DATES AND EVENTS FROM YOTtWYKAW a. m ̂ a k wM December SI, 1944--Horse racing It banned in the United States for the duration of Wtrld War H December 22, 1CM--Bakers In New England are fe- quired by new law to make bread of standard weight leave*-- nsing only pore wheat or rye floor.
