D.C. 20548 RELEASED MAR 191973 B-164031 (1) The Honorable M. Gene Snyder L House of Representatives K Dear Mr. Snyder: In response to your request of December 1, 1972, we obtained information on the charge made by Dr. Tom L. Gabbard, Superintendent, Newport City Schools, Kentucky, in his Novem- ber 20, 1972, letter to you. Dr. Gabbard stated that the /Kentuk Dh~~t~mn or i,,Education-violates .the _Kentucky ,St ate Pn~fr.Vo~ai~na~Eucti~nand Fede.ral., xeagulat-ins_,on_,to - cAZt.--euc=etion because it will not fund the Newport Board a of Education's application for a locally operated area vocational education center. We discussed the matter with Dr. Gabbard and with officials of the Office of Education (OE), Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, and the Kentucky Department of Education. OE and Kentucky Department of Education officials said that State law regulates the way area vocational schools are operated. Kentucky has both State operated and locally operated vocational schools. OE officials stated that the arrangements for operating area vocational schools must be worked out between the State and the local communities involved. The Newport Board of Education submitted an application in March 1970 to construct an area vocational school in Newport to be financed by Federal, State, and local funds. The totally new facility was to meet the vocational, indus- trial, technical, and academic needs of students from the Newport Independent School District. Students from other school districts in the area--Bellevue, Dayton, Fort Thomas, Silver Grove--could attend the vocational, industrial, and technical courses. The State Board of Education commended the Newport Board of Education's proposal. In April 1971 the State Board of Education approved Newport's application, but as a State o- erated extension center at Newport High School. Dr. Gabbard opposes the State Board of Education decision and believes that the Newport Independent School District should operate the proposed facility. *~F0957
