Non-Graded System Defeated at La Porte Junior High Meeting
La Porte school trustees tabled a proposal for a non graded system at Baker Junior High after a two hour public forum. Trustee D C Laird led the move to delay, with Trustee Lee Barnett opposing. Superintendent Ralph B Pearce defended the plan which would let students progress at their own pace with a new reporting system. Some parents feared the change would reduce challenge and lead to laziness, while Pearce cited it as a way to tailor learning to each child. A nearby district reportedly saw dropout declines after adopting a similar approach.
