Long Beach Religious Program Faces Fund Shortage
The L B Church Council says the Weekday Christian Education Released Time program may not open in three Long Beach elementary schools this year due to a $2,000 budget shortfall. Rev. Robert Walker cites falling contributions and plan to expand last year’s 44 schools to 45, but funds are needed by Oct. 6 to avoid curtailment and staff cuts. The program, begun in 1945, allows fifth and sixth graders to attend religious classes with parental permission.
