There is always room for im
provement.
As for accelerated students, this
year, for the first time, we have fully
state-funded resource teachers at
the elementary and middle schools
and then we have a special program
at the high school that the Univer
sity has research funds for.
But we need to reach more chil
dren because we have more who
qualify than we are able to provide
for.
What do you plan to do about
improving the maintenance of
physical facilities?
I want to see quality in the con
struction program because just one
error in the area of capital outlay
would cost us enough to underwrite
all of the special programs that have
been questioned recently.
I think that if we insist on quality

built that we ll be in good shape.
What do you think could be done
to improve the safety and quality of
present playground facilities?
A lot. There cun be a lot done
with the free and inexpensive mate
rials that involves fathers on a
Saturday. In a way, those are some
times the most imaginative because
many times the fancy and expensive
equipment the children tend to
boycott.
The other that is nicely designed
and kind of unique attracts them.
How do you feel about current
taxation methods and how do you
feel it could be improved?
Basically, the taxation is a state
issue. Citizens interested in correct
ing this will have to take tin trouble
to become informed and work for
change at the state level because ad
valorem taxes are regressive and
abominable.
As for what adjustments can be
made on our own local budget, I do
not think we are out of line as far as
the amount expended per pupil.
Most districts receive quite a lot
more federal funding that we do not
qualify for so we do have to put
more local funds into it. This hurts
us. The only industry we have is the
Texas A&M campus and it is not
taxable. So it falls on the residential
and rural property.owners.
rent taxation methods and how do
you feel it could be improved?
Well, of course, taxing is always a
sore spot. I think mostly the re
placement of the ad valorum tax id-
together.
Of course this would he legisla
tive, it s On the state level, if this is
to he done. But, outside of that, the
best we can do is to work toward a
inlly equated equalization of the
base.
I here has been a great deal of
progress made in this respect, in
fact it s just about finished.

Well, certainly become aware of
the safety features that many of the
playground equipment companies
are developing these days in ac
cordance with the national
standards.

Should there be any changes in
the current dress codes, if so,
what?
No, no changes.
What are your thoughts on fu
ture programs for students with
learning disabilities and acceler
ated students?
I believe that we should continue
our efforts in both of those areas.
We do have an exceptional pro
gram, or series of programs, for our
exceptional students, and I think
th ese should he continued.
