Honor roll students at the high school this six
weeks included nine seniors, seven juniors, 12
sophomores and nine freshmen.
Additionally, Nocona has over
the years, taxed its residents to con-
struct a high school campus Mon-
tague taxpayers have not had to pay
for.
Trustee Billy Henley, who came
on the board after the tuition
scrapes of 1986 and 1987, proposed
one concern, “The only problem
that I have is if there’s any of their
people over there are paying taxes
in the Nocona school district, they
shouldn't have to pay tuition.”
“I could agree with what you
said,” May responded, “if they
were paying a dollar and three and
a half cents.”
May noted that Montague pro-
perty owners enjoys a smaller tax
burden for educating students
because for 42 years they did not
have pay anything for for the final
third of their students’ public school

education.
The board also wrestled with
another persistent thorn in the side:
a strengthened absence and tardy
policy designed to encourage class
attendance the day of extra-
curricular activities.
Board members continued fin-
ding possible areas of “what ifs”
not, in their view, completely
covered by the policy.
But NHS Prinicipal Harold
Reynolds pointed out that another
30 day procedural delay to redraft a
fourth reading would mean delay-
ing implementation of the policy.
We’ re going into the worst time of
the year for this kind of stuff,”
Reynolds said, urging the board to
approve the measure as presented.
"Then you have all summer to
revise it the way you need it.”

“I say we ought to reconsider (tui-
tions), when their (tax rates) get up to
fl. 03.5,” — Nocona Trustee Charles
May.
By Tracy R. Mesler
The Nocona School
understands the feelings
Montague School Board,
bottom line in providing
school education to students
residing in the Montague School
System is simple.
It costs an average of $3,200 a
year to educate a student at NHS.
Of that amount, the state provides
approximately $2,000 and the tax-
payers of NISD provide the re-
maining $1,200 through a tax rate
of $1,035 per $100 valuation.
Because Montague ISD provides
only a K-8 educational program, its
taxpayers enjoy a much lower tax
rate, 68-cents per $100.
“It’s not that we’re going to
charge you a thousand dollars for
the principal of it,” May noted.
“We’ve built all of this (high school
campus) with tax dollars.”
The Montague School Board
resurrected the annual thorn in the
side with a letter beseaching the
Nocona ISD to remove the $1,000 a
year fee charged for each M ontague
resident attending Nocona High
School.
Quoting from Montague's letter,
Trustee Shelly McNew noted that
the statement , “We are a very
small district, have a small tax base
and have very little reserve funds,”
could just as equally apply
Nocona as to Montague.
