McHENRY 385-8080 4NAEA} we help keep America moving SCHOOL ASKS $2,150,000 (Continued from page 1) When a member of ihe audience noted that prospects of passage did not appear good, Board President James Althoff observed that the board could only present the issue and be guided by its results. He added, however, that to date there have been gifts of almost $1,000 to support publicity favoring the referendum, which seemed a^good indication. He pointed out that the school i3 not spending any of its money for this purpose. Doug Pratt, Alternative high school director, was present to show slides of activities at the school, made by himself and the students. He told the board there are thirty-five students and five teachers. Until now the program has been fully funded by a trust at the Continental bank of Chicago. However, next year that funding will be reduced to an estimated $32,000. A total of $15,000 was given for school use by the city in Revenue Sharing funds, another $14,000 should be forthcoming from the Illinois Office of Education and about $600 in local funds have been rnllprtAH The budget for 1978-79 is $78,000. Pratt indicated he would like board support in the amount of $20,000 but Althoff said the present financial condition of the district does not permit it. In his information talk, the director pointed out that these students, who are in the school either because they are dropouts or because they function better in an at­ mosphere other than a regular classroom, had an 80 percent attendance record when in the high school. In the Alternative school this is 91 percent. He outlined a five-year plan In which the student who progresses slowly can still complete his high school education. Pratt also spoke of a cooperative plan in which the McHenry school might interest other districts that do not have an Alternative school to in­ troduce the program. In this way, he concluded, it may be possible to obtain "seed" money for continuation of the local school. He also reviewed a recently completed proposal that has been sent to about sixty agencies in search of potential sources 4»£_funding. Following the executive session, the board voted to retain Paul Buckley in the employment of District 156 for the 1978-79 year. This decision was made because Buckley is the one tenured staff member who did not receive a HIF (Reduction In Force) letter in May of 1977. Other action involved ap­ proval of an Administrative- Counselor reorganization for the next school year. Each campus will consist of one principal, two assistant prin­ cipals and two counselors. The team approach will be main­ tained with the major emphasis for discipline being moved to the assistant principals. There was some alteration approved in the Physical Education program at East so that sophomores receive P.E. each day next year. This was done to bring the district closer toward compliance with state regulations. MO*: POLICE IN NEW BUDGET (Continued from page 1) over Dutch creek on Route 31 north of the city.

A check from the Snowballers snowmobile club '• was accepted by Mayor Stanek for the purpose of establishing a CB base at city hall.

The city will study the possibility of establishing CB communications in city hall.

"Money, and letters indicating the support of the community would show investors that there is a need for the program to continue." Alderman George Harker questioned the need for the school. "The taxing body that takes 80 percent of our tax money educating young people," said Harker, "is not funding the school, so I fail to see its necessity." Other Councilmen indicated that they believed it was a worthwhile program that needed to be continued, and a vote determined that $1,500 would be granted to the Alternative school as a show of support for the program. Groups and programs denied requests for Revenue Sharing funds included the McHenry Pigtail girls' Softball league and the McHenry Hornets Junior Football league. Alderman Bolger suggested that $500 be granted to each league, citing their importance to the lacking park program of the city. "The leagues are a benefit to our city park program," said Bolger, "and should not be ignored." Alderman Datz explained that money could be taken out of the General Parks and Recreation fund to support the leagues rather than Revenue Sharing money. The McHenry County Youth Service bureau was also denied a request for funds. The bureau, which works with troubled youths, has had dealings in the past with the McHenry police department. Mayor Stanek questioned Police Chief George Pasenelli on the Youth jtpireau. "When I was in Waukegan," answered Pasenelli, "we openly broke off relations with the Lake County Youth Service bureau." The Council decided not to allocate any funds to the group. A request for funds to clean up Boone creek was also rejected by the Council, until actual work begins on the creek. Five thousand dollars have already been allocated for the project. Deaths BRUNO P. RESECK Wonder Lake resident Bruno F.
