A University of Oregon study by C L Huffaker analyzes Myrtle Point and seven surrounding districts. It covers district boundaries, prior suspensions, consolidation, and population trends, noting Myrtle Point as the central hub and 1947 census figures showing growth since 1940.
The article analyzes measuring educational load by school census and daily membership, noting advantages and limitations. It examines five year trends across seven districts, with consolidation adjustments, highlighting Myrtle Point’s 106-student increase of 18.5 percent and overall growth outside the district.
The article analyzes age group sizes across districts with a focus on 5 year olds, 4 year olds missed in census, and a larger younger cohort. It notes migration effects on pupil counts, with three of seven districts active and Gravelford suspended. Data from Tables III to V compare average daily membership and grade distributions, highlighting more students in the first four grades than in higher grades and expecting changes in 1948.
