THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH- The year of 1947-1948 was a year of consummation in the drive to forge a physical pattern which would insure the ultimate in educational advantages. The school year of 1947-48 inherited from its predecessor enviable accom- plishments in educational progress. The old Olney Township High School with its forty-two square miles of territory became .the Olney Area High School with a district comprising two hundred and fifty-seven square miles, offering opportunities to all alike through an extensive system of student transportation. ln the vaults were 595U,UOU in bonds dedicated to the erecf tion of an adequate school plant. Movement was discernible at the element- ary school level, also, where some sixty-four grade school districts joined to become the East Richland Consolidated Elementary School, embracing an area almost identical to the high school district. These heritages furnished the challenge for l947'48, and on March 5, l94S, the people in the eastern two-thirds of Richland County met that chal- lenge by voting i256 to 426 in favor of the establishment of the East Richland Community Unit District No l, This action at the polls placed the entire program of education in six townships in the hands of one board and one administration. cc5v
