Description

Letter from the Rancho Santa Fe School District Board of Trustees to community residents concerning school finance, taxation, and educational programs. The letter explains the distribution of the 1967–1968 educational tax dollar among elementary education, areawide aid, the San Dieguito Union High School District, junior college tuition, and countywide educational expenses. It discusses increased junior high tuition and the possibility of Rancho Santa Fe operating its own junior high school, estimated costs for elementary school bus transportation, and the district’s educational priorities, including small class sizes, supplementary and advanced instruction, foreign language, music, and specialized teaching services. The letter also invites residents to a school-community patriotic ceremony on February 28, 1968. Attached financial materials provide Rancho Santa Fe School District tax rates, beginning balances, and junior high tuition figures from 1962–1963 through 1967–1968 and a graphic breakdown of the 1967–1968 education tax dollar.
