The $29,671347 school budget
calls for a tax increase of .11.685
per $106 assessed valuation. The
library badget includes a six cents
increase per SlOO assessed valua­tion
over the current year.
The school budget includes a
contingency for those staff
salaries, which have not yet been
negotiated. It also indut^ fiinds
for improved curriculum offer­ings,
particularly in the field of
computer education, as well as
for on-going m^tenance repairs.
Dr. RoUand Jones, Baldwin's
Superintendent of Schools, said
on Wednesday evening that he
was "grateful again to the com­munity
for supporting excellence
in edncation," and they "win go
forward with new improvements
in instruction."
The election of the sdKnl board
candidates followed a short
period of camp^gning which in-doded
several candidates'
forums'. At several of them, the
procedures to be followed were
not outlined clearly and the
process of attadcing a candidate
through audience questions and
comments was distiubing to some
members of the audience. Flyers
and advertising m the local
media - were used during the
campaign, although generally
the campaign was tiiore low-key
than in recent years.
Present School Board pres'i-dent
Lorraiive DeQer told THE
LEADER that she was "very
' pleased" with the vote.
Matetsky said he was glad
Baldwia ''carhe throng^ withoat

rhetoric." He said he was look­ing
forward to serving the xta-dents-
and the taxpayers.
_ Mrs. Irring promised to be at
'every Scfaool Board meeting. She
charged that Mrs. Ddler had re­fused

Irving, "itujbe tiext w e * ."
