Problems facing schools addressed
Hv MIKE ROBERTS
Assistant city editor
The biggest problem that the
Georgia sehool system fares is
helping citizens understand the
importance of the system and
its role in society. Dr Charles
McDaniel, superintendent of
schtNils. said Wednesday.
McDaniel told his Kotary
Club luncheon autiience “the
life of this community and
every community in this state
is very closely tied to the
school system.
“Everywhere there is a
vibrant, ongoing school pro
gram there is a vibrant,
ongoing community." he said
TO INSl'KE the future
health of local school systems
and their communities. Me
Daniel called tor a better
relationship between schools
and communities.
I think the greatest days in
education are still ahead I am
convinced the youngsters going
through high school are better
prepared than 1 was."
The state school superinten
dent discussed five other
problems the system needs to
conquer in the near future
McDaniel mentioned in his
40 minute sjieech the lack of
appeal of the teaching profes
sion. social promotions, the
inadequacy of some school
systems' financial bases, the
lack of classroom discipline,
and the lack of practical
guidance for students

s|H'nd more lor education in
the future" because the
present salaries paid to teach
ers are not bringing to the
profession top-notch persons.
McDaniel said.
TO ILLUSTRATE his point.
McDaniel said a beginning
physics instructor in the public
school system had a base
salary of SH(khi
“You do not get great
physics teachers for $H0tx> a
year." McDaniel said
if we offer only mediocre
folks, we will get mediocre
education."
As for social promotions.
McDaniel said “the greatest
disservice we can do for a
child is to insist he move
ahead" before he has mastered
a grade level.
But to achieve the goal of
abolishing such promotions.
McDaniel said school systems
must have parental support
Some students cannot a-
chieve the levels of higher
grades For example. McDan
iel said many people will not
learn to read well.
McDaniel said he did not
advocate expelling these stu
dents from sch<M>l, because the
individual would be faced with
even more problems.
"I THINK we need to keep
'these persons' in school and
teach them as much as they
can learn." McDaniel said
McDaniel called for a
‘ complete tax revision" to find
a fairer and more efficient way
to fund school systems
ix?t's look at the whole (tax
system) and decide what needs
revision," McDaniel said
He said the present method
of using property taxes to
finance county and city schools
and salt's taxes to finance state
school operations caused vast
differences in schools across
the state
McDaniel said while one
school district might have $1(N)
per student to spend on
education, another district
might have only $10.
Local option sales tax and
revenue sharing are two
possible ways of increasing
1 il/
school system budgets. Mc
Daniel said
LAC K OF’ discipline, like
social promotions, is a problem
that will need the support of
parents if it is to be solved,, he
said
We are going to need the
support ol a lot of parents,
ours is a permissive society. .
consequently, this will be
reflected in school," McDaniel
said.
McDaniel told the parents in
the audience “We have about
the same discipline in school
as you have at home."
Lastly, McDaniel said
schools should better prepare
students for being on their own
and making a living Many
students have not thought that
tar ahead
The Kotary Club speech was
the third the Athens native has
made in his home town in the
past to days.
\FTEH THE speech. Mc
Daniel denied he was opening
his campaign toward re-elec
lion in November He said his
formal announcement would
not come for at least another
two weeks
The Georgia school superin
tendent serves a four-year
term and is elected in the
general state election.
Lou Peneguy. state school
system spokesman, said Me
Daniel has made four to five
speeches a week, many in
response to letters from
citizens requesting his appear
ance.
In contrast. Jack Nix,
McDaniel's predecessor, made
only about two speeches a
month. Peneguy said.
McDaniel became the school
superintendent upon Nix’s res
ignation.
WOTIIER REASON why
McDaniel has made frequent
visits to Athens may be that
McDaniel's family still lives
here.
McDaniel has not moved his
family to Atlanta hfreuw he
did not want to uproot his
family for a short stay in the
capital should he not be
re-elected. Peneguy said
