HISTORY MONTH
Just recently, the House of Representatives approved a pro-poral
to annually designate the month of Febrilliry as American History
Month. The purpose is to focus attention on the people and events
that. have shaped Ame r iefln policy in the past and made our
country what i t is toda y. February was chosen be-cause ~ur nati9n
bas traditionally celebrated the birthdays of two
prominenthistoricalfigures--George Washington and Abra-ha m
Lincoln--during this month.
I am sure m any people wo nder what are the real benefits of
setting aside a particular week or month for some kind of
spe-cialobser vance. What guod will it really accomplish to
design-ate this month as American History Month other than to put
new posters on classroom bulletin boards and allow public of-fic

I believe that in recent years we have become increasingly aware
of the importance of having a "sense of history," an ac-curate and
objective understanding of the

MAINE TEAC HERS ASSOCIATION The attack in the Specia l Session
on negotiations rights for
teachers is an incomprehensible a ttempt to remove them from any
real voice in educational improvement, the Maine Teachers
Association said today.
Dr. John H. Marvin. MTA executive secretary, said that the
hearing on LD 197 4 demonstrated that superintendents and school
boards are openly opposed to giving teachers a meaningful role in
educational planning.
Dr. Marvin said this shortsighted school board attitude is
re-flected in the working of the bill now before the Special
Session which would outlaw negotiations on matters of "inherent
man-agerial policy . "
"School management representatives at the hearing barely
mentioned teachers salaries as an issue." he said, "But they
bitterly attached the requests that teachers are making for smaller
classes, teacher aides, reading specialists, and other· i terns
that represent improvements in the educational opportun4
ity for children." ccmt'd on Page 8
