Teachers' Administrative Work Limited, SchoolSurvey Shows NA sRCARDSON 309 South State Street- At the Dillon Shop By ADRIENNE RAUCHWERGER Participation in school administra- tion by teachers is largely limited to the offering of suggestions while final decisions are made by the administra- tion alone, writes Wilbur E. Moser, head of the mathematics department at Pittsburg High School, Pittsburg, California. In an article in "The Nation's Schools," he reports the findings of a survey in which 660 teachers and 90 administrators from 103 Califor- nia elementary and secondary schools cdntributed information. Teachers have the greatest oppor- tunity to express opinions on the development of policies and practices in functions that are closely related to classroom procedures, according to Mr. Moser's survey, which shows the greatest amount of teacher-partici- pation is found in the construction or revision of the curriculum. Functions that deal with the con- trol and supervision of pupils rank next in Mr. Moser's survey which finds that 50 per cent of the policy changes in student government have been made by teachers and adminis- trators cooperating both in the de- velopment and final decisions. More than 80 per cent of the teachers do no participate in general business ad- ministration, Mr. Moser added. H. W.

READ THE DAILY' CLASSIFIEDS Finally, "the least amount of teacher participation is in those func- tions that affect the teacher person- ally as a member of his profession. The supervision of instruction, the sal- ary schedule, the work load of teach- ers and increases in salary, as a re- ward for growth and efficient service, show little or no teacher participa- tion. "Policies and practices regarding these functions are largely developed and }decided by the administration with little or no participation on the part of the teachers."
