South Madison Schools To Get Aid From State
South Madison Community School Corporation received 209704 from a state aid fund created by the Indiana General Assembly to aid 16 needy districts including 15 others. The district sought 338000 from an emergency fund in May to cover the 1971 year. Superintendent Harold Smith cautioned the money may not be enough and program cuts could follow. The Classroom Teachers Association leader Rex Hinsky urged raises but others expect sacrifices. The district plans to review programs, estimate revenues, and draft a preliminary budget, with a public ad required Aug 6. The board meets at Pendleton Elementary with an executive session tonight to discuss appropriations.

The draft would halt at midnight unless Congress extends it. A key leader said action would be too slow. Officials noted suspending operations would be the first since 1946.
