This year enrollment rises to 816 and per pupil costs drop slightly. State averages exceed 15 per pupil. Hickory spends far less with salaries well below state levels. The board argues for more funds to add rooms and teachers, noting overcrowding and the need for desks, blackboards, fuel, and supplies. The total property valuation is about 1.35 million. a ten cent tax hike would raise roughly 41,400 yearly. The board emphasizes thrift but says more money is essential to provide acceptable schools.
