1 THE MARION STAR Supervisor on the Go Friday, January 30, 1970 I Rayl Cpnyers Keeps Watch Over Elementary Education "i sonnel on the conferences designed to supplement current methods of grade card reports on student evaluation. MR. CONYERS, who has served the Marion City Schools in one capacity or another since 1963, obtained his bachelor's degree from Ohio State University in 1937.

Church St. fh lrM mfp-' i 7 r-t Drug Pusher Uses Kids To By ANDREA HAAS Marion Star Education Editor A man long interested in the why and wherefore of student motivation has brought his personal philosophy of education to the post of elementary supervisor of Marion City Schools. Rayl Conyers assumed leadership of that area this year with jurisdiction over the city's kindergarten through fifth grade levels. HE IS CONCERNED about the waste of human resources and hates to see persons with potential for useful and gratifying lives failing to develop fully.

Mr. Conyers feels that the educational process is the key to opening that potential and sees the task of elementary schools as instilling basic skills necessary to all kinds of learning development. His basic responsibility is defined as maintaining and improving quality of curriculum and instruction in kindergarten through fifth grade. He is involved in widely varying activities, including the recruitment of new teachers which began today. MR.

CONYERS visits smaller liberal arts colleges interviewing prospective teachers interested in Marion City Schools. He also is in on selection of elementary texts, conferring w'th committees representing cross-sections of schools and grades with principals as chairmen. In keeping a running evaluation of curriculum, Mr. Conyers has prepared a summary of student achievement in sp'Mns at several grade levels for the schools' spelling committee to give them an idea of what is being accomplished. Now under study is the adoption of special social studies material for the city's special Peddle Heroin NEW YORK (AP) say a father of four who was arrested on drug charges used teams of children to ped dle narcotics.

David Epstein said: "This man conducts a Fagin-like activity in the sale of drugs, using teams of children in these sales." About 500 spectators in the courtroom applauded when Gagliano ordered Santiago held in $100,000 bail for a hearing Thursday. "If these charges are true," Judge Gagliano said, "then this man is worse than Jesse James. If they're true, he may have ruined the health and morals of conducted visitors on tours of exhibits ranging from tin can art to collage, art in science and a display of ships' models. Principal Gale Leget served as "curator" and elementary supervisor Rayl Conyers performed the ribbon cutting. Refreshments were served to gallery browsers.

ART GALLERY OPENS AT GLENWOOD. Excitement ran high at Glenwood School this week as the Glenwood Art Gallery set up by Mrs. Doris Badertschers' fifth grade opened to the fanfare of visiting parents and a special ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday. Guides such as Linda Caldwell (right) his words, is "a good mix of youth and experience." The emphasis in the preschool program for five-year-olds is making academic achievement at a later date a little easier and more effective for the student. Another large project undertaken out of Mr.

Conyers of-' fice has been the planned a t-teacher conferences scheduled for Feb. 12 and 16. He hopes to get feedback from both parents and school per- education classes. Being sought is a medium in which special education students could improve their reading in a more interesting way. AN AREA WHICH Mr.

Conyers says has been both his biggest concern and satisfaction is the "very well launched" school year kindergarten program new this year in Marion.
