ROHAN Superintendent The Appleton Union School System The year l926 concluded the earnest struggle of the leading Appleton educa- for a better educational system in Appleton. Since in that year, after the begin- tors, ning of the Junior High Schools, the old and inefficient district system, where power was invested in each individual school, was abandoned for the better, more efficient and economical union system. The new system is union as Par as the educational procedure is concerned but as far as physical conditions go it is very much like the old organization. develop association and cooperation among them. Power is invested and centralized in the office of the Superintendent of schools and a board of seven members who are elected at large throughout the city. With this system better educational advantages and facilities are obtained and a greater economy in budget is preserved. We now have five high schools, including the Junior highs, and we find them all cooperating with each other and with the other schools in the city. Financial support for our schools now comes from a common treasury whereas formerly in the old district system budgets were met by the people in the ward in which the school was located. The union system has been in operation for two years and has worked out very effectively and efficiently. No one regrets that Appleton has made this pro- gressive step. Pagc nina
