An Outline Of The Procedures To Reduce Budget Expenditures In The Edwards County Community Unit School District No. 1 For The 1978-79 Fiscal Year, Gary J. Schurz

Masters Theses

The purpose of this study was to discover ways to reduce expenditures in the budget of the Edwards County Community Unit School District No. 1 for the 1978-79 fiscal year in the light of a projected loss of revenues complicated by inflationary trends.

The need arose due to three factors:

1. A loss of a portion of the district's state aid due to a previous overpayment.
2. A rise in the assessed valuation which would mean an additional loss of state aid: It was projected that local monies collected would not offset the loss of state aid.
3. Spiraling inflation was creating an …

The Administrative Procedures Surrounding Computer Scheduling At M.L. King Junior High, Diedrus U'Vonne Brown

Masters Theses

The use of a computer system to schedule students in a junior high school was the subject of this particular field study. This process has only been used for one year at Martin L. King Junior High School, and the administrative procedures surrounding this had not yet been spelled out, especially in specific terms. It was through observations and conferences with the principal, administrative assistant, and TIES (Total Informational Educational Service) personnel, that I felt a need to look more closely into the scheduling process and develop some guidelines for the administrator to follow.

The creation of this study was …

Retention In Salem Elementary Schools, Charles M. Raglin

Masters Theses

Social or chronological promotion has long been a practice of the public schools of the United States. The alternative, nonpromotion or retention, has in the opinion of most psychologists and sociologists led to emotional and sociological trauma for the child. Another and probably the most cogent objection, is many parents oppose nonpromotion and are unwilling to accept the social stigma of "flunking." Children's achievement is a status symbol which profoundly affects families in many communities.

The writer contends that unless parents are directly involved in the decision early in the nonpromotion year, retention will not culminate in satisfactory achievement. Cooperation …

The Effect Of A Visual Perception Handwriting Program On The Acquisition Of Handwriting Skills, Joanna R. Jones

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The purpose of the study was to determine if first grade students could gain control of the handwriting skill with greater perfection of letter formation through the simplified method devised by the investigator than through

a combination of commercial handwriting programs used by the control group. Participating in the program were forty-eight first-grade students from a rural school in New Mexico. No significant difference resulted between the experimental handwriting program emphasizing visual perception and the control handwriting program with little emphasis on visual perception.
