Garrett, Edwin B., Comp.
Prepared by the Overton County Rural Education Improvement Project Director for Overton County, Tennessee, this 4-section report covers the period from July 1, 1967 to June 30, 1972. Section 1 provides demographic and school data including the current county population, industrial expansion in the county, 1967-72 school population, a map of Overton County and its schools, and a map of Tennessee. A report of school project interventions comprises section 2. Projects for communication skills development, family involvement, cultural enrichment, teacher education, nonprofessional aide service, and tool technology and integrated industrial arts are evaluated. Questionnaire responses made by 103 teachers and principals at an in-service session, 1968-69, are summarized in tabular form. A 2nd table displays the level of educational attainment of Overton County teachers comparing the years 1967 and 1972. Section 3, the evaluation of pupil achievement, contains a verbal and graphical presentation of pre- and post-testing in communication and computation skill development (K-12) and social studies and science (6-12). The financial report, section 4, discusses general and detailed disbursements and available funds for 1967-72. Table 3 in appendix A displays highlights of the project interventions, 1967-72. (HBC)
