The board announced the school tax rate for 1967 will be $4.90, a 94 cent reduction in the budget request submitted to the state tax board.

The state board explained the rate reduction was because the corporation had a $100,000 bal-lance from the 1966 appropriation and the 1967 revenue from the state had been underestimated. Don Early a member of the audience, asked the board on what financial basis contract bidding was conducted. Board members said they are governed by state laws which require anything costing more would have to be conducted in bid form. The board rejected bids for storm windows for Center and Shelby Schools because the contractors bid on different type windows, indicating specifications were not clearly defined.
