Handley School Budget Sparks City Budget Battle
The Winchester city council faced a 100 percent Handley School appropriation demand, with School Board chairman Robert M. Ward and Superintendent Frederick E. Clerk arguing for an extra 15 000 to cover growing enrollment after annexation and a higher compulsory age. They cite 1 465 Handley students, 49 teachers, income limits from Handley Estate, and reduced county tuition and fees as key pressures.
