No Enrollment Growth Foreseen for Athens Schools
Athens school superintendent Harper C. Pendry told the Rotary Club no rise in district enrollment is anticipated, with current figures around 1,182 and a possible slight decline as war veteran families move on. He noted buildings valued at 2.5 to 3 million dollars and projected operating costs near 201,000 for 1948, funded largely by local taxes. Pendry also cited high school spending at 133.36 per student in 1945, above the state average but below some large-city benchmarks, and outlined plans to reduce the high school to elementary expenditure ratio from 1.7 to about 1.4.
