Jensen Criticizes Aid Plan Limiting Area Ten Enrollment
Area Ten officials accuse peers and the state department of orchestrating a plan to distribute about 9 million dollars in state aid by current enrollment figures. If approved by the legislature Area Ten would be the only Iowa merge school required to cut full-time equivalent students from 3083 to 2872 for 1969-70, while other area schools may grow. Cedar Rapids leader B A Jensen predicts the council will oppose the plan in Des Moines.
