School eyes 'salary'
reward program as
absentee solution
By DANTEDRICK
Associated Press Writer
SAN DIEGO (AP) -
Memorial Junior High School
lost $132,000 last year because
students played hooky. Prin-
cipal Bob Amparan figures the
school could save some dollars
by paying the kids to show up.
“My idea may sound a little
crass, but it ought to appeal to
them,” says the principal of the
school with the worst at-
tendance record in the San
Diego area.
"I could drop all these truant
kids and let them became a
permanent problem on the
streets. Instead, it’s bald and
controversial, but why not
convince them that school is in
their interest?”
The district-wide school
board is to vote within two
weeks on whether to es-
periment far three months with
Amparan’s proposal. Under the
{dan, each of the 950 students
would be issued a card marked
“25 Cents” for each day he or
she attended class the month
before.

Ih the 1379-80 school year,
teemonal Junior High lost
£32,080 testate funds because

whutft id in penalized 18 a day.
On absentee rate is about 0
percent compered with 3.5
percent Cor the Sen Diego
public school district overall.
San Diego loses an estimated
SLt million for its public
secondary schools with its
TMK NEWS-TELEGRAM, Sulphur Springs, Tax os. Monday, Sopt. 8,1980-5
of unex-
growing number
plained abeences.
Memorial Jtmiar High, with
90 percent minority enrollment,
is located in southeast San
Diego - probably the poorest
section of California’s second
biggest dty.
“These an children without
lawns to mow because there
aren’t any lawns, or even the
possibility of shoe shining jobs
without people at home in the
daytime,” said Amparan, 40,
who earned a doctorate in
educational administration at
the University of California.
“I don’t think we want to lose
these yoiaig people by default
... And I say the first thing is to
get them back in school,” he
said.
At least two school board
members are apprehensive
about his Idea, but Amparan
has been talking about it in the
neighborhood during the past
week.
“You may not believe this,”
he said, “but 13 kids have naked
us already what day school
starts.”
