Education Conference At Joint PTA Meeting
A Bath area education conference convened at Huse Memorial School with about 60 parents and teachers, splitting into six groups to review the Washington Conference topics. They urged reading, writing, arithmetic as essentials, encouraged scholastic achievement at home and school, and supported study comparing Bath’s standards nationally. Recommendations included stronger school board accountability, long range planning, possible consolidation, and use of state consultants. Priorities covered playgrounds, gymnasiums, and community use of school facilities, plus attracting and retaining qualified teachers through higher pay and better home-school contact. Public support for funding, property tax comparisons, state aid understanding, and ongoing public interest in education were discussed, with proposals for weekly Bath Times columns and educational television support.
