Downington Schools Reject Federal Education Funds
Downington Joint High School district in Pennsylvania rejected a $190,000 HEW funding proposal for an educational materials resource center for the fourth time. In a Tuesday night vote, 13-6, the board refused the money despite a department official saying HEW would reallocate funds to another district. The board member called it foot-in-the-door federal intervention.
