AUSTIN — Texas parents
who wish to transfer their
children from one public
school district to another —
without changing their own
place of residence — have
been given a new route by
the State Legislature.
This new plan is outlined
in detail by the Texas. Educa-
tion Agency in a letter mailed
to school
throughout
(May 26).
The act,
Legislature and signed by Go-
vernor Preston Smith on May
9, repeals transfer methods
which have been in effect since
1925 and 1935.
Parents will no longer ap-
ply for transfer to the county
superintendent. Instead, they
will now go directly to the
superintendent of the school
district they wish their child-
ren to enter. The parent or
guardian of the
apply in writing
ceiving school
dent’s office. If
agrees to receive the non-
resident student, the parents
or guardian will be notified
in writing.
The old June 1 deadline for
filing transfer applications
will be extended, probably by
several weeks, when the State
Board of Education meets in
Austin June 7, Agency offi-
cials explain. The board is
also expected to adopt poli-
cies for implementing the new
law.
Parents who have already
applied for transfer to the
county superintendents will be
notified in writing to contact
the receiving school district.
If their applications have al-
ready been sent to the county
office, they will be forwarded
to the receiving school dis-
trict.
Parents who transfer their
children into another district
may be required to pay tui-
tion if the grades are taught
‘in the home district. If, how-
ever, the grades are not
taught, the home district pays
the tuition.
The fee paid by parents may
not exceed the difference be-
tween what it costs the school
district to support a student
and the state funds received.
This amount will be based on
the per student costs during
the’ 1968-69 school year. The
state per capita funds for each
child ‘ - - - ■

Change In Quail
Season May Result
From Hearing
A change in the quail open
season may possibly result
from a public hearing held by
the Parks and Wildlife Com-
mission at Montague Monday
evening. Four Montague Coun-
ty men testified at the meeting,
recommending that the sea-
son open on December 1st. It
opened on November 9th this
year in this county.
The fishing and hunting re-
gulations for Montague County
were discussed but no changes
were suggested.
Three representatives of
the Parks and Wildlife Com-
mission held the meeting at
Montague. Those testifying at
the meeting were Hinds Clark,
W. J. Stone and Bob Collins of
Nocona, and Kenneth Shackel-
ford of Montague.
The Board will announce its
decision in September.
