                    <text>Mr. Donald Ingraham, head of vocational education, Arlington County Schools - 10/17/63

Enrollment in various courses r Industrial Cooperative Training 90 (11th &amp; 12th grades)
Vocational Office Training
62 (12th grade)
Distributive Education
132 (11th 6 12th grades)
284
For ICT, there are 70-80 applicants each year
they are selected on basis of age (must be 16), in 11th or 12th grade, evidenci
of interest
no indication that the schools would expand this program
Bond issue Includes provision for new automotive mechanics shop and new general shop
There is no vocational education m in junior high schools comparable to those in
Fairfax (maintenance a n d repair and trowel trades). In Fairfax, it is for
students who have or will, within school year, reach age 16, usually low I.Q.
School's jot complicated by outside factors such as new state regulation that
requires a longer training period for barbering and cosmetology and the rule
that a barber shop, no matter what the size, can have only 1 apprentice,
and apprenticeship is necessary to beoone a barber
13th and 14th gradess

not needed in Arlington because:
county haS a few research outfits requiring highly skilled
personnel
the need is for service people (though such jobs as car
greasing are becoming obsolete)
custodial, sanitation, domestic workers, etc., are usually
not from Arlington but come from other types of
communities
children come from professional and semiprofessioral homes
college attendance: Yorktcwn
85$
Washington &amp; Lee 72-75?
Wakefield
68?
Hoffraan-Boston
20?
of some 500 who do not go to college, some girls get matried,
some boys go into military service, etc. The remaining do
not add up to enough for a county technical school which
is above the trade school level, requires strong academic
background in English and math,
students are not now enrolling the available air conditioning
1 and printing classes available, so unlikely to go on to
I technical school

presently available:

Manpower Development Training Program in Marshall School (paid
by federal government) for unemployed adults cleared throu^i
the State Employment Service. This can be expanded as the
labor demand indicates (37 now in clerk-typist classes)
schools already have adult education (drafting, etc.) and could
have more if needed

parent resistance to vocational education is hi#i
area school may be indicated some day
Mr. Ingraham does not wish to be quoted an any of the above!

REPORT OF THE HOFFMAN-BOSTON PLANNING COMMITTEE
August 22, 1963

TOs

MEMBERS OF THE ARLINGTON COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD

SUBJECTS

PLANNING THE TERMINATION OF HOFFMAN-BOSTON HIGH SCHOOL

The assignment given to this committee is clear.

This committee is

expected to recommend a plan and procedures for implementation of a
definite decision of the School Boards

that the Hoffman-Boston Senior

High School program shall be terminated and that senior high school
students from Hoffman-Boston shall be reassigned to the other, larger
high schools in the County.

The matters remaining for decision and on

which this committee is expected to advise include:

timing, admin

istrative and personnel provisions, and such instructional provisions
as may be appropriate.
is timing.

The principal issue, overarching the others,

�-

2-

RELEVANT FACTS AND FINDINGS

The Basic Decision
The School Board's decision obviously reflects

the social values

of an enlightened community, a community which supports equal opportunity
for all of its citizens*

The decision also reflects the application of

practical economic considerations for the years immediately ahead, in
which the already inadequate Hoffman-Boston facility will become grossly
overextended by 1967.

The Committee's job is to relate these considera

tions to the facilities and needs at the other high schools and to the
welfare of all students and the community as a whole.
The Senior High Program
Arlington County has made remarkable progress over the past decade in
improving the adequacy of its senior high school program.

This improve

ment has been accomplished in spite of relative overcrowding that has
been almost chronic.

At the present time the three larger high schools

offer rich and varied programs, encompassing?

(l) a full range of advanced-

placement academic courses in English, foreign languages, social studies,
mathematics, and science; (2) full-scale terminal programs in several
major vocational fields; (3) wide-ranging selections of elective enrichment
courses in English, social studies, art, and music; and (4) a selection
of language programs covering four or more years each of Latin, French,
Spanish, and German, as well as two years of Russian.
This advanced instructional program undoubtedly could be made even
more effective if the facilities in which it is offered were less crowded,
more adapted to flexible class arrangements, and more adequately equipped
in such aspects as laboratories, science storerooms, and facilities for
nonacademic course offerings.

Even so, the educational opportunities

�- &gt;

available at Wakefield, Washington-Lee, and Yorktown are without
question much broader than Hoffman-Boston can offer0
As an example of contrast in scope and depth of course offerings
the Committee noted the followings

Courses regularly offered at

Washington-Lee, Wakefield, and Yorktown High Schools during the six
years 1956-57 through 1961-62 but not offered at all or more than
once at Hoffman-Boston includeds
Various advanced mathematics courses
English electives (dramatics, journalism, advanced composition)
and the English-art-music seminars
Social studies electives (economics, commercial law, U.S. and
world affairs, psychology)
German, Spanish, Latin and advanced level French courses
Music theory, mixed chorus, and orchestra
Third and fourth year art courses
Advanced courses in foods and homemaking
Electrical fundamentals and general metals
Distributive education and diversified occupations
A few of these courses were not started as long as six years ago,
and in a very few other instances courses were skipped for one year only
at one or another of the large schools, but no student attending any of the
three large schools for three successive years was denied an opportunity
to take these courses.
Since very few were offered even once in a six year span at HoffmanBoston, only a tiny minority of its students had a chance to take such
courses.

The simple fact is that even if only

say, of any student

body is interested in a particular specialized or advanced course, the

�-4class can be fairly readily offered at a large school (1500 or more) but
it is forbiddingly expensive, both as to use of faculty and space, to
offer it at a very small school (250).
Hoffman-Boston Senior High School, with its enrollment of only 250
students, (270 in 1964-65), cannot afford to offer much more than the
basic courses in each subject area, even by combined assignments of
: faculty to both junior and senior high school courses.

In addition, the

f Hoffman-Boston plant at this very moment has inadequate library, music,
shop, auditorium, and gymnasium facilities for a combined junior-senior
high school program.

To make Hoffman-Boston an adequate senior high

school obviously would require substantial expenditures.

However, the

building can be made adequate for the junior high program by remodeling
of classrooms which become available when the senior high program is
terminated.
Some stress has been laid on a low pupil-teacher ratio at HoffmanBoston, resulting presumably in more attention to individual student
problems.

But too much faith probably is not justified in the traditional

"advantages" of a small high school as compensation for sparsity of course
offerings.

The budget for the current school year actually does not

provide a pupil-teacher ratio at Hoffman-Boston much different from
those in other County secondary schools.

Statistics also show that

during the last school year average class sizes at Hoffman-Boston were
similar to those in other County secondary schools.
The problem is not one of quality of faculty at Hoffman-Boston.
terms of graduate degrees, diversity of geographic and college origin,
scholastic honors, and recognized professional achievement in the form
of awards and fellowships, the teachers at Hoffman-Boston appear to be

In

�-5an outstanding group0

The Committee has examined the collective pro

fessional characteristics of this faculty and finds that they evidence
a genuine asset to the Arlington School system,,

The utility of this

faculty to Arlington County clearly should be preserved.
The decision to close Hoffman-Boston Senior High School is, therefore,
very tangibly a decision to equalize facilities, course offerings, and
other educational opportunities for the students of Hoffman-Boston in
comparison with other students throughout the community.

Nevertheless,

the merits of this decision rest not only on educational grounds but
also are a matter of social conscience.
interests of Arlington and of the nation.

They are related to the best
Social stability and progress

in Arlington are in large measure related to the ability of all its
residents to find gainful employment in an increasingly complex economy.
The nation cannot afford a failure to find and fully educate all of its
talented citizens, whatever their race or economic status, or wherever
they may live.
In practical terms, the cost of providing fully adequate facilities
and program for Hoffman-Boston comparable to those at the larger high
schools would be
justifiable.

exorbitant, even if such an endeavor were socially

Even the maintenance of existing standards for this school would

call for many needed improvements as noted and for overall expansion of
physical plant after 1965* because enrollments of the combined juniorsenior high school would burgeon increasingly beyond rated capacity of
the building.

Hoffman-Boston could not, in fact, absorb anywhere near

the overcapacity that the larger schools have coped with in recent years,
Hoffman-Boston is the smallest of all the secondary schools.

Differences

in junior and senior high school programs also would limit the school's

�-

6-

ability to provide for overenrollments.
Although space might be relieved, closing out part of the senior
high program in one year (say, the sophomore year) and the remainder in
the next year would aggravate rather than relieve the problem of flex
ibility and range of course offerings.

The impracticality of operating

too small a school in this technological age would hardly be alleviated
by making it substantially smaller even for one year.

Nevertheless,

with reference to the situation at other schools, this possibility
cannot be summarily dismissed.
Relationship to Total Senior High Plant Requirements
The relationship between closing of Hoffman-Boston and space needs
in the other high schools is a central consideration.
be exaggerated.

Yet it must not

In perspective, there is only a relatively small and

transitory relationship between these two matters.
The total number of students to be absorbed by the three large high
schools if all three grades at Hoffman-Boston were to be closed out at
once is estimated at 270 in 196*+, in a total senior high population of
6280.

This represents not quite *+.3% of the total senior high enrollment.

If transfer were achieved in 1965* the estimated number would be 250,
something less than *+.2% of a total enrollment estimated at 6000.
If established attendance areas were to be retained, most of the
transferred students would go to Wakefield.

The result in that case

would be more than Wakefield could cope with, and would cause undue
hardships for all students assigned to Wakefield.

Possible adjustments

in attendance areas, however, would equalize the overloads carried by
the three schools at about l6% in 196*+ or 11% in 1965.

By comparison,

the three high schools carried an average overload in 1962-63 of about

�-711% and are carrying about a lk% overload in the current school year
(17% at Wakefield),

While any significant overload is undesirable,

the situation upon termination of Hoffman-Boston Senior High School,
either in

or 1965, will not be significantly different from that

which the three large schools have experienced and are experiencing
this year.
The overloads will, in fact, be significantly less than have been
experienced as recently as 1959-60 by Wakefield (29,9%) and 1958-59
by Washington-Lee (31,5%)*
of course, for two reasons:

These figures are not directly comparable,
(l) In the years past where schools

experienced 30% overloads, some "off-campus" classrooms were provided
temporarily, (2) Program improvements since 1959? such as language
laboratories and the addition of more varied course offerings, make
over-scheduling of the schools' facilities more difficult to handle
without disruption.
It should be noted also that planned remodeling of basement space
in Wakefield will make available four additional small classrooms by
196^, thus reducing an equalized overload to about 1^% in 196^ or
9% in 1965,
It is reasonable to conclude, therefore, that the three large
high schools can absorb students from Hoffman-Boston in 196*f without
creating conditions less tolerable than exist in the current school
year.

In 1965* the resulting conditions would be better than exist

for the current year, as far as overall statistical comparisons
are concerned.
This comparison does not in any way detract from the separate and
distinct question as to the desirability of present pupil/space ratios.

�-8 -

Nor does it deal with the adequacy of present facilities in terms of
flexibility or type.

It can be demonstrated that changing educational

programs require not only different types of accommodations but some
adjustments in criteria for total space requirements.

Evidence cer~

tainly shows that the high schools have absorbed their past and present
overloads only by excessive use and even permanent conversion of space
designed for other than classroom purposes, with the result that facilities
now in use probably do not meet the standards of the Virginia State
Board of Education’s School Planning Manual.
These are matters beyond the direct assignment of this Committee,
however„

The number of students to be transferred from Hoffman-Boston

is sufficient only to prolong for an additional year (if transferred in
196*0 the degree of overall overcrowding experienced in the past two
years.

However, as notea earlier, a small reduction in overload would

occur if transfer were deferred to 1965.
In the matter of timing, then, the effects of prolonging overcrowding
of the high schools at present levels must be weighed against the effects
of additional delay in implementing the School Board's decision of last
April.
Factors to be Considered in Planning the Changeover
Timing obviously is one of the basic considerations involved in
implementing the decision.

Timing is related to the ability of receiving

schools to absorb the transferred students without jeopardizing program
effectiveness or the students' ability to adjust to the change in schools.
Timing is directly related to a decision on when or how much (or whether
or not) to adjust attendance areas.
Another consideration affecting the timing of the change is the

�-9prevailing policy which allov/s Seniors subject to redistricting to finish
in a school where they previously have attended for two years. Seniors
from Hoffman-Boston would not have such an option if their school were
closed at once.

But if this option were retained for other students

who might be subject to a move as a result of the transfer, some skewing
of planned overload adjustments would result, leaving Wakefield with a
slightly higher overload in the first year of the transfer.

However,

the planned conversion of the four small classrooms at Wakefield probably
would be more than enough to compensate for the difference.

Availability

of this option could be expected to encourage a positive acceptance of
the change by students in the three large schools.
Among the most important factors to be considered is the placement of
Hoffman-Boston teaching staff members whose positions would not be needed
when the senior-high school is terminated.

Fortunately, the number to

be absorbed would be small, and the Hoffman-Boston staff generally is
made up of clearly well-qualified and experienced individuals.

As soon

as possible, the size of the staff reduction in Hoffman-Boston should
be determined.

Specific teachers involved in the reduction should be

identified and the School Personnel Department alerted to plan for their
absorption elsewhere in the County in the school year of the student
transfer.

In recent years more than 100 secondary teachers have left

the County annually.

The number of teachers to be transferred from

Hoffman-Boston would be not more than 10-15# of this number.

If the

teachers involved are identified early and tentatively placed as
appropriate vacancies come to light, it is reasonable to assume that
they all could be placed in Arlington.
Advance orientation and guidance should be provided, also, for the

�-1 0 -

students who will be involved in the transfer,,

This guidance should

be extensive and should begin well in advance of the transfer date„
The emphasis in this counseling should be on helping the students
to understand and prepare to take advantage of the courses and pro
grams which will be available to them in the larger schools,.

�-

11-

ALTERNATIVES
Three different timetables have been considered by the committee.
Of the considerations listed above, only those considerations regarding
capacity of existing facilities are materially affected by the alterna
tives.

Sufficient time exists in any case for counseling of students ana

for planning to place the teachers who will be affected.
A.

Termination and Transfer in September 1965
The alternative most favorable with regard to space is, of course,

to wait until the fall of 1965 to implement the School Board's decision.
At that time, the degree of overenrollment in the three schools, if
equalized by boundary changes, would be substantially less than the
schools presently are experiencing.
This would be the only advantage to such a delay, however.

Psycho

logically it would not be good for the total community to defer action
for two years when people are prepared to accept it much sooner.

The

most serious argument against this alternative, however, is that it
delays too long the opening of greater program opportunities to the
students of Hoffman-Boston.
B.

Phasing Out
A possible middle course could be defined as a "partial phasing

out."

Under this plan, sophomores could be transferred in the fall of

196^, the 196^-65 seniors would be graduated from Hoffman-Boston, and
the 1964-65 juniors would be transferred to the other schools in
September 1965*
The principal advantage of this plan would be that it mitigates
the problem of overenrollments for the larger schools.

It also would

spread over two years the period for placing Hoffman-Boston teachers

�-

12-

in other schools in the County.
However, this plan would require especially careful planning in
order to operate a partial senior high school program for less than
200 students at Hoffman-Boston during the transitional year.

It

probably would require such measures as assignment of teachers from
other schools to teach one or two classes daily at Hoffman-Boston.
For Hoffman-Boston students who are juniors in 1964-65 it also would
partly obviate the opportunity to avail themselves of expanded
course offerings in the larger schools
C.

Termination and Transfer in September 1964
The third alternative— making the complete change immediately in

1964 with redistricting to equalize overloads— would represent the
most dynamic and forceful implementation of the School Board’s
decision.

It would, admittedly, represent the greatest inconvenience

to staff and students in the three larger schools.

But if the degree

of crov/ding can be tolerated, this alternative would more quickly
achieve the social goal of equal educational opportunities for high
school students in Arlington County.

The major disadvantage, as

already implied, is the deferral of relief from overcrowding in the
three large schools.

�-13RECOMMENDATIONS
All things considered, the Committee recommends that the School
Board take steps immediately to implement Alternative C 0

We believe

that this represents the best balance of forces in recognition of
overall student welfare and community commitment.

In addition, we

recommends
1.

That advance orientation of students at Hoffman-Boston who
are to be transferred be initiated at least six months
before termination of their last year at Hoffman-Boston,
including visits at the school to which transfer is
anticipated, explanation of course and extracurricular
opportunities at the new school, and planning of
individual student programs.

2.

That?under any alternative, senior high school boundaries
be adjusted so as to equalize the overload on the three
large senior high schools, taking into account the pro
jected additional classroom space already being converted
for Wakefield in 196**, and that in adjusting the boundary
between Yorktown and Washington-Lee the east-west line (along
North 22nd Street west of Glebe Road) be straightened.

3.

That individual placements of members of the Hoffman-Boston
teaching staff be made as soon as projected opportunities
open up in advance of the termination of the Hoffman-Boston
Senior High program, with special attention being given tos
(a) the best distribution of talent throughout the school
system; (b) the balance of skills and talents in any given
school; and (c) the adequacy of the staff scheduled to remain

�-14at Hoffraan-Boston to carry on the Junior High School program,
so long as it continues as such.

Turnover in the total

teaching staff in the school system is such that no forced
separation of a teaching staff member from Hoffman-Boston
or elsewhere should occur on any grounds except inadequate
teaching performance of such a character that would normally
result in separation if the Hoffman-Boston transfer were not
taking place.
4.

That every effort be made at the earliest possible opportunity
to upgrade physical facilities in all high schools to keep pace
with changing program needs, with special attention to physical
education and cafeteria

facilities at Washington-Lee High

School and shop facilities at Wakefield High School.

(This

issue is related to the Committee's assignment, because
undesirable conditions in these respects at these schools will
be exacerbated by any increase in student enrollment at any
time and, indeed, should be corrected even with present or
lower enrollments.)
5.

That the School Board provide funds, at the earliest possible
opportunity, to improve facilities at Hoffman-Boston for an
f

adequate Junior High program, particularly for improvement of
the library, physical education, music, and industrial arts
facilities at that location,

SCHOOL PLANT INVENTORY AND UTILIZATION STUDY
THEES SENIOR HIGH SCHOOLS Ai© ONE JR--SK HIGH SCHOOL
AS OF OCTOBER, 1962
Introduction

The objectives of this study were threefold:
facilities in the Arlington County High Schools:

(1) Provide an inventory of the existing instructional
(2) Provide a comparative analysis of the patterns of

utilization of the facilities, including effects of identifiable factors and choices on the patterns
of usej (3) Assist tha High School Principals in clarifying the strengths and weaknesses in existing
facilities, problems in fitting current programs to facilities, and any possible approaches to even
more effective utilization of the facilities,
The tables provide detailed data on the number and kinds of teaching stations available in each
school, patterns of use for each type of station, class sizes, "teaching-learning” situations of
individual classes, and the effects of current

pi-actiees— in combination with program requirements,

enrollments, and limits on available space— on the daily schedules of individual teachers.
The narrative preceding the tables describes some highlights of what the data show, some inter
pretation of contributing factors, and some additional information not covered in the tables.
Explanation of the Tables
The tables constitute a kind of pyramid of data, ranging from specific details by school on one
type of factor, through summary comparisons of each type of factor for all four schools, to the overall
table of comparative data (Table 1),

are the basis for Table 5, which provides a comparative summary of
Only the summary tables will be discussed here.

The backup tables are

included for persons who nay wish to look at specific situations in individual schools.
Comparative Summery Data
Table 1 provides comparisons of key factors among the four schools,

Cate shown in purple provide

general background on the size of facility, scope of program,, and degree of crowding (% sf "Class
Capacity," explained in the following section, and not the same thing as rated pupil capacity), for
each school,

Sata shown ia green deal with factors for which a higher percentage is presumably favorable,

(The only item on which the favorable nature may be questionable is the % of classes under l6 students:1
Items shown in red are items for which a higher score presumably is less favorable.
Availability and Gtillzation of Classroom Space
Table 2 shows the total daily class-scheduling capacity of each school, by type and size of rooms,
the numbers of classes actually scheduled, and a percentage which represents number- of classes scheduled
divided by number of periods available, for each class of rooms,

(Physical Education facilities and

classes generally are excluded from the tables because the nature of the data and the way they were
reported preclude comparable treatment,)
The "Periods Available" column for each school represents what could be called its "ffeximum Paily
Class Capacity," based on a six-period schedule,

(Thus, the number of suitable teaching stations for the

school is the maximum class capacity divided by six,)

The difference between a school’s rated pupil

capacity and its maximum class capacity may be seen in the following table:

Thus, Wakefield and ^orktown are noticeably more crowded than are Hoffman-Boston and Washington-Lee,
While Torktown appears in a much more favorable position on the percent of maximum daily class capacity,
this position apparently results in part from differences in other areas.

For example,

classes have 31 or more students, while only i&amp;% of Wakefield's classes hare more than 30.

of Torktovra’s

�•5"
Some tentative indications seem apparent on how much of an overload above rated capacity a school can
absorb before real deterioration of "teaching-learning1 situations begins to occur..
1

Roughly speaking, an

overload up to about 10% does not appear to create particularly undesirable situations in the case of
Arlington’s high schools with the current instructional program.

Above this figure, as in the case of

Torktown and Wakefield, compromises of desired scheduling criteria begin to become necessary— value
judgements must be made in choosing "lesser evils,"

Analysis of the various tables reveals that different

schools have tended to select different approaches .in making the required compromises.
Again it should be noted that the above indications of the degree of crowding do not account for
physical Education classes or facilities.

Ironically, the two schools with the highest overload are

relatively we3,l off in this area of instruction,

Washington-lee and Hoffman-Soston, on the other hand,

are rather severely overloaded with respect to available Physical Education facilities,

This matter is

discussed below in connection with Table 23,
Summary of Room utilization
Table 3 summarizes data for til® four schools on the number and kinds of teaching stations available
and in use and on patterns of use,

Weshington»Lee and forktown can be seen to have a higher proportion of

regular, or general-use, classrooms, a condition which increases flexibility and should permit these schools
to carry a slightly higher percent of "overload,"

Xorktown apparently is carrying a reasonable overload,

Washington-Lee could handle more students only at the cost of further deterioration in its Physical
Education situation.

While Hoffoan-Boston has the lowest proportion of regular classrooms, this is

largely because its total number of rooms is much smaller.

�-6Some of the choices among conflicting values become apparent in comparing Sable 2 and Table 3,
example =

For

Wakefield is shows, by Table 2 to be the most crowded, with forktown the next most crowded.

The gap between the two actually is less than the percents of class capacity alone would indicate
(as discussed in connection with the table on page 4, above).

While slightly' less crowded, forktown

nevertheless is making fuller use of its available scheduling capacity in regular classrooms and most
types of special classrooms.

This higher utilization of conventional classrooms contributes to the

much lower percent of classes for Vorktown which are required to meat in other areas and temporaryadaptations.

This has been achieved, however, at the cost of other values which traditionally have

been held to be important.

Twenty percent of Torktown’s rooms are used by three or more teachers,
The impact of this pattern on teacher travel will be seen in the dis

situations of individual classes in the four schools.

(Backup Tables 9-12 provide

Table 13 provides comparative data on the

(Backup Tables lb-17 provide similar data by

subject field®, for each school.)
Variations in class size data may be attributed to various factors,

Hoffman-Boston has by far the

highest proportion of classes with 15 or fewer students— -probably because Hoffman-Boston is the least
crowded.

The other three schools all are close to the four-school average in the percent of classes with

�-715 or fewer students0

At the other end of the scale, Hoffman^Boston and Wakefield both approximate the

four-school average for percent of classes with more than 30 students0
average proportion^, while Washington-Lee has about half of ito

Yorktown has about double the

These differences cannot be ascribed

primarily to the use of team teaching* since all three Senior high schools have it* and Wakefield uses
the practice almost as much as Yorktown*
Surprisingly * turning to Table 1 3 Yorktown®~whieh has the smallest percent of classes meeting in
nou-classioosj areas* and has the highest percsnt and number of classes over 30— has the lowest proportion

of crowded classrooms* This may b© in part a positive result of the choices which cause lorktowuss teachers
to do the most traveling*

In other words6 Yorktown apparently has done the best job of matching class

size to room size* by requiring more of its teachers to teach in two or more classrooms,,

The high

proportion of crowded classrooms for Washington«Lee appears to be largely a result of the size of that
school*s classroomsc

Most of Washington~I.ee9s regular classrooms are slightly under 600 square feet in

area*, while most of the regular classrooms in Yorktown and Wakefield are larger than 600 square feet..
classes with more than 20 square feet per pupil* of course, are not necessarily housed adequately0
special classrooms a higher amount of area is needed*

(All

In most

There seems no room to question* however* that

less than 20 square feet per pupil constitutes a crowded situation not conducive to most favorable
”fceaching~learning" conditions„)
Another indication of the results of different choices in scheduling is shown in Table 13*

While

10# of Wakefield’s classes meet in other instructional areas, including undesirable temporary adaptations*
the figiire for Yorktown is less than 156,

About half of the difference, however* is represented by

classes meeting in special classrooms designed for subjects other than those being taught0

Summary of Teaching Station Situations of Individual Teachers
Table l8 summarizes data on the situations of individual teachers, for the four schools.

Comparisons

by subject fields can be obtained from the backup tables, 19-32,
Again, the results of differing value choices are apparent,

Wakefield, for example, has the greatest

But Wakefield also has the lowest proportion

of teachers required to teach in three or more different places.
Physical Education facilities and Claeses
Comparable quantitative analysis of the data for physical education facilities and classes was not
possible because of wide variations la circumstances and methods of reporting.

Several basic facts

seem quite apparent, however, in Table 23.
Wakefield and Torktown, the two newest high schools, have Physical Education facilities which would
have been considered luxurious a few years ago but which arc just adequate to house the kind of comprehensive
program needed to meet physical fitness goals recently recommended nationally.

There is no doubt that on a

nationwide or statewide basis Wakefield and Yorktown would be near the top in Physical Education facilities.
Present programs put more of a strain on Wakefield’s facilities than on "forktown’s.

While lorktown does

not use all its facilities every period, Wakefield does,
Washington-Lee and Hoffman-Bostoa, however, do not have anywhere near the capacity to handle physical
education programs comparable to the two newer schools,
less than half the plant capacity of the other two.-

Xn very rough terms, Washington-Lee has slightly

This circumstance affects the way Washington-Lae

must schedule its program, as described in the return submitted by that schools

classes in the 3yo,
These conditions exist even in the absence of any program of Physical Education for the 12th grade!
Additional Information for Individual Schools
In addition to the comparative data shown in the statistical tables, each school reported certain
individual factors which should be noted for a complete picture of the situation in that school,

Wakefield
The data definitely i'how that Wakefield is sore crowded than the other schools..

Also, while the

most crowded, and with the greatest number and percentage of undesirable ,teaching«Iearning” situations,
!
Wakefield appears to be making slightly less use of its available classroom space.

For these reasons,

a more detailed analysis was made for Wakefield High School,
The results of this analysis are contained in a separate administrative report, which is attached
as Appendix A,

Specific classroom rearrangements suggested in the Appendix are not considered desirable

by the Wakefield 3taffv for a variety of reasons.
Remarks contained in the Wakefield Worksheet identify the following additional needs for modification
er added equipment, not covered in Appendix At
(1) Folding tablet armchairs for Music Classroom 110,
(2) Preparation of unexsavated areas in the basement as additional locker and shower space.

�Yorktown
la general, Yorktown appears to have a satisfactory blend of program, facilities, and enrollment,
Shis relatively favorable situation is reflected in the general lack of special comments contained in

Baca 134 is a small room with no windows and limited ventilation,

1’
ueil works with the newspaper staff in the same roes the period proceeding his Journalism class,

Glynn

works with tha literary magazine staff there the last period of the day.
If iks disadvantages of the room outweigh the advantages of location to the teacher, other more
comfortable space ia available for both classes.

She Journalism course, with 20 students could meet either

in Soon 116 (Music room, used for Health classes first and third periods) or in Boos 29 (as Art classroom),
She Advanced Composition class, with eight students, could meet is Rocs 223 (a Regular classroom), Boos 212
(Distributive Education room) or Scorn 217 (Bookkeeping classroom).
Probably the most undesirable situation at present i3 the scheduling of two Commercial Mathematics
classes into the Metals Shop (Kooa 33)*

On® of the classes, meeting th® third period, could be moved to

nearby Boos 26, which is i\sed other periods for Health classes,

Ths other, meeting ths fourth period,

could meet in one of tha three places suggested above for the Advanced Composition class*

(Storage and

display of training aids sight ba a problem in such a move, however,)
Ironically, only one Metals class (second period), with 22 students, is taught in the Metals Shop,
and only two Wood classes (first and fifth periods) are taught in the Woodworking Shop,

If a plan could

be obtained,
Eemarks contained in the lorktovn Worksheet identify the following needs for modification or added
equipment, to improve the utility of existing space;
(1) Modification of Regular Classroom 130 into a Chemistry teb, This room now has on®
bisilt=in demonstration stand, with gas, water, end electricity in the front of the room,
(2) Addition of blackboards and bulletin board to improve utility of Husic Rooms 15 and 16
for general use,
(3) Provision for bettor ventilation in the Chemistry Lab, Room 131,
An additional 2500 square foot area ia occupied at present by the studios of WETA,
Washington^Lae
All 15 of the W&amp;ahingtoavLee Blasses listed as meeting in inappropriate areas are Health classes.
Other Health classes not counted In this study meet for part of the year, in various available classrooms.
The study hall pattern, at Wasliisigton-Lse is different from those for the other senior high schools,
Washington-iae has three rooms designed and labeled specifically as study halls. Study halls are now
Ehs
scheduled in two of these rooms and in various classrooms, /third study hall room is used for Health
classes.

Those three rooms could f e modified into large regular classrooms with flexible dividers to
e

convert to as many as six smaller teaching stations as required,

Shis modification is one of the needs

listed in the Washingtotn-Lsa Worksheet,
So b ® tsars taught classes now using the auditorium eeuid then bs snitched to such classrooms.

The

auditorium could bs used for study halls, as i« the practice in the other senior high schools,
Rsaarks in the Kashington-Lee Worksheet identify ths following additional nesds for modification

os- additional equipments
(1) Added storage space,, blackboards or bulletin boards, Iscturne, or "lit®=out" curtains, for
34 different classrooms, (These aro items of equipment already generally installed in
Wakefield and Torktown,)
(2) Folding era chairs to permit snore flexible use of Music classroom 123»
(3) Completion of the modification and equipping of rooms 505 and 306 as reading classrooms,
(4) Enlargement of the library, to meet ALA standards and add needed shelving space, and the
addition of eaall rooms for conferences, small groups, teacher research and planning, etc.
Hoffman--Boston
The Koffmas-Boston Worksheet did not include any specific remarks on needs for modification of rooms
or provision of additional equipment.
The five classes for Hoffnsan-Bosfcoa which are scheduled in .iQB-olassx'Oom spaces include two Heading
classes in the clinic, and three "Physical Education and Bealtti” classes in the Cafeteria,

There do not

appear to be any suitable alternatives to the present locations for these five classes,
Styncary and Conclusions
A situation as kaleidoscopic as tbs subject of this study cannot really be summarized.

Some of

the overall indications of the date, ara highlighted in the following statements?
io

About 65 classes in the four schoole=~5# of the total number of classes&lt;==are meeting in

situations which ars considered undesirable and which would not exist in the absence of crowding.
{45 of the 65 classes so identified are in Wakefield,)
2,

Twenty classrooms, representing 8$ of the total counted, are used for three or more different

subject fields,

(23^ of the claasrooas in Bcffaan-Boatou arc so used, 91" of those in lorktowa, €% in

Washington-Lee, and 5% in Wakefield,)

�&gt;133s

Forty-one classrooms, or 16% of the total counted, are used by three or more teachers»

(Torktown 20%, Hoffnsan-Eoston 19%, Washington-La® 18%, and Wakefield 10%.)
b,

Of 1350 separate classes in the four schools, l6b 9 or 12% have 15 or fewer students,

Hoffman-

Boston has 22% of its classes in this category, Torktown 12%, Washington-Lee 11%, and Wakefield 10%,
IAt the other extreme, 220, or 16% of the classes have 31 or sore students,

torktown has 30% of its

Iclasses in this category, Wakefield 16%, Hoffman-Boston 14%, and Washington-Lee 8%.
3 , la 1?1 classes, 13% of the 1350, there is less than 20 square fast per pupil of floor area.
This indication of crowding is true for 20% of Washington-Lee classes, 13% for Wakefield, 6% for HoffmanBoston, and k% for Xorktowzu
6,

Physical education facilities are difficult to compare,

A rough Indication of the differences

among schools say be provided by dividing pupil enrollments into available square feet of gy® space,
Hie resulting figures for square feet of gya space per pupil ares

Wakefield 13,0; Torktown 10, b;

HoffsaE-3oston S,2| Washington-Lee 6,1,
From the above highlights and from the remainder of the preceding discussion and the statistical
tables, the following general conclusions sees reasonable1
1,

The space utilization pattern reflects the known fact that Arlington's High Schools have

enrollments above their rated capacity,
2,

All four high schools studied are doing a good yob of maximizing the use ef their available

facilities, although they tend to make different choices in compromising among undesirable alternatives.
3,

Physical education facilities are inadequate by today's otandards in Washington-Les and

IHcffman-Boston,

�-1*»-

k*

Wakefield High School will need about SIts additional classrooms, et least
'

for the next

two or three years,
5.

.Suggested equipment and renovations for Washington-!.®® would help to improve the school's

plant to make it more nearly comparable to the two newer high schools,
5?k® ultimate meaning of this analysis is5 of course, a matter of viewpoint.

It can be shown

that the overwhelming majority of high school classes are housed in adequate classrooms,

Xt can be

anticipated that within five year® the crowded situation will be eliminated by a decline in enroll
ments,

Xhere ar® positive elements in the present pictures

double sessions have not been necessary?

the scheduling of classes or study holla ia libraries has bees avoided completely.

Stoat important

of all, an exceptionally rich and varied instructional program along with a small student "overpopulation"
has been accommodated without any really bad situations.

Compared to most places, Arlington is well

off, even with some crowded conditions,
She other elds of the picture also should be noted.
so that all students are not yet similarly housed.

Marked differences in facilities do exist,

Space for student activities is limited.

flexibility is needed in programming for such innovations as team teaching.

Increased

At the same time, the

proportion of special classrooms such ss science or language labs, is creeping up,

Xt is not a good

practice to have to schedule classes in language laboratories end then have teachers constantly exchanging
classrooms so other classes can use the facility,
She impact of instructional program on needs for facilities and on utilization patterns else should
be recognized (see paragraph 3 of Appendix A),

Original rated pupil capacities for high school buildings

aay be rendered invalid by marked changes in program, some of which already are evident.

Other changes

�-15may be anticipated is tha near future,
This study, a first attempt at defining Arlington's high school plant situation is depth,, raises
mors questions than it answers, sore "probabilities’ than conclusions*

Nevertheless, it does provide

much quantitative information on circumstances generally observed and known be teachers, principals,
and supervisors-

It seems to suggest, also, both the possibility and desirability for

basic continuing plant inventory/use records in the future-

sobs

kinds of

All space in a school, including office

and storage space, should bo included to complete the picture in say future analysis of this typeChanging program patterns, and the probability of more substantial program changes in the future,
suggest a need for further study to evaluate- long-range school plant needs for the Arlington sshoolsEnrollments are only one factor in needs for facilities construction or modification.

Since Arlington

has experienced most of its population growth, the amount of future construction will probably b®
small-

St will be especially important that any new projects be part of an articulated long-rango

plan to improve instructional adequacy and increase flexibility to meet changing needs.

Careful

attention should bs given to what and h i / we stay teach In ths coming decades as a basis for planning
oand evaluating not only new construction but also proposed modifications

j

In ths interim, one possible short-range solution to overcrowding is portable classrooms- This
approach should ba carefully studied before adoption, as the limitations and pitfalls may outweigh
the advantages in aany cases. The application of such classrooms in Arlington would bs very limited
by comparison with most systems where they have been used successfully, Cliasat® and community
attitude are important factors- Satisfactory portable classrooms may cost one-half or two-thirds
as much as permanent additions, depending on the engineering requirements for the permanent
construction.

FREEDOM FUND EXTRAVAGANZA - £ 300 profit
Congratulations and sincere thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Birdie W. Alston and their
helpers for their leadership and devoted work in putting on the "Extravaganza.'
The Knights of Columbus Club proved to be an attractive place, Mr. Robertson’s
band made beautiful music and the company was of the best. Everybody there
agreed "it was a lovely party."
Most important, though, we reached our objective and made a profit of about $300.00
which will go to the Freedom Fund. We thank all of you who supported this effort
and bought the tickets.
ARLINGTON YOUTHS ELECTED TO STATE OFFICE
We are proud of Michael Murray who was elected President of the State Conference NAACP Youth &amp; College Chapters and Christine Cooke who was elected as a Standing
Member of the Executive Committee at the State Conference. We are sure they will
do an excellent job.

your renewal instructions.
Rather than just drop the matter and terminate your subscription— which is normal maga
zine procedure— I want to write this letter to explain why/your continued interest in
The Reporter is unusually important to us.
/
The Reporter's principal objective is, by keeping its^readers well informed, to enlist
their participation in the continuing fight to preserve America's liberties, its free
institutions.
/

/

The Reporter is dedicated to that fight. The Reporter is for any man, any group, any
institution which strengthens our hold on our basic American inheritance. The Reporter
is against any man, any group, any institution which loosens that hold. The Reporter is
against the Communist who would steal our freedoms from us. The Reporter is against the
blind reactionary who would lock our freedoms away and forget about them.
Believe me, Mrs. Marx, when I say that we don't want your six dollars for a year's
renewal one-tenth as much as we want' your moral support: we want your interest, we
want your awareness, we want your/constructive thinking and voting. Our circulation
has grown to more than 170,000^-a group of literate, clear-thinking people who understand
and appreciate the immensely/important task The Reporter is performing. We'd certainly
like to have you remain a^member of that group . . . and we're ready to meet you halfway
as a token of our sincerity:
The regular annual subscription rate is $6.00. You may have nine
months (18 issues) of The Reporter for only $3.00. That's just
about a penny a day. Those 18 issues would cost you SOi more at
the regular subscription rate.
If you'd like to renew your subscription at this unusual money-saving rate, just sign
and mail the enclosed special renewal card. No postage is necessary, and we'll gladly
bill you later.
I

look forward to hearing from you, Mrs. Marx.

i

Very sincerely yours.

George Hinckley
