The image of Page 12 continues the Commission's Report from the previous page into the CONCLUSION. The Commission details concerns about the school calendar (financial penalties for not meeting the required time in school), the retirement plan for teachers who choose to leave the public school system to teach in private schools; the funding for teacher retirements; funding for the Attorney General's office and the need to expand it to meet the potential influx of questions about the Supreme Court decision of 1954 and legal ramifications for local schools/school divisions.
-
EWP Gray Commission Image Page 11
The image of this page shows the continuation of the proposed plan from the Gray Commission to address federally mandated desegregation of Virginia's public schools. Items 8-12 are on this page.
Item 8 would allow local school boards the power to expend funds for tuition grants, etc., without gaining permission from the "tax levying body."
Item 9 provided for utilizing funds from the local governing bodies' budget to pay for legal expenses accrued by local school boards in defense of their actions.
Item 10 allowed for the provision of retirement benefits for teachers who chose to leave the public school sector and become employed in private schools. This item, in particular, was proposed to address staff choosing to leave the public school setting because of the 1954 school segregation cases of the time.
Item 11 empowers the office of the Attorney General to "render certain services to local school boards." In the event that legal assistance is needed, this office would be engaged to answer questions regarding the "commingling of the races in the public schools." The Commission proposed that the Attorney General's office be expanded and "necessary funds be appropriated by the General Assembly."
Item 12 proposes updating of state codes/statutes that would need to be amended and the removal/repeal of "obsolete sections of the code" as well.
-
EWP Gray Commission 010 Image Page 10
The image of page 10 of The Gray Commission Report shows the continuation of the proposed details of a plan to collect and utilize tax dollars for elementary and secondary education purposes, including providing tuition grants and transportation. Item number 6 on this page also provides for local governing bodies to be allowed to interpret and/or determine expenditures and the waiving of "certain conditions" under which state funds could be distributed. In addition, the funding would be provided for parents of pupils of integrated public schools who "object to such assignment" to an integrated public school.
-
EWP Gray Commission Image Page 9
The Image of Page 9 elaborates on the plan to develop legislation authorizing local school boards to levy local taxes for public school purposes. The legislation would give local school boards "broad discretion" in utilizing the funds for tuition grants for elementary and secondary school education, including expenditures for transportation costs. This page also explains that the funding legislation for the levying of taxes for public schools would be a "companion legislation to that dealing with the assignment of pupils and compulsory education, respectively." This page also specifies that the legislation would be "designed to prevent further enforced integration by providing the payment of tuition grants" for parents who object to their children attending mixed schools. This page also provides an amendment statement regarding protection from penalties for the distribution of state funds.
-
EWP Gray Commission Image Page 8
The Image of Page 8 shows the SUMMARY OF LEGISLATION PROPOSED for the proposed legislation authorizing local school boards to assign pupils to particular schools and to provide for appeals in certain instances. The legislation would give local school boards "broad discretion" in assigning pupils to public schools. This page also shows a proposed blueprint for the appeal process if a parent or guardian does not wish their child to attend an integrated school. The proposal also allows local school boards the power to choose to "furnish transportation for pupils" or, as emphasized on this page, not furnish transportation to school children. The proposal also allows for a law relating to the assignment of teachers and raising monies to support pupil transportation and expend state-provided aid for the same purposes. This document also provides language regarding localities without public schools as they may need funding; however, the funding or "school appropriations are limited."

This page continues the discussion from page 6 under THE PROBLEM BEFORE US, referencing the judicial decisions of 1954 and their impact on Virginia schools and the separation of Negro and white children in their education. The Commission sees the Supreme Court's decisions as having an "adverse effect" on white children through the integration of schools. Thus, the Commission believes that separate facilities for the races are the best for children's education overall.
The Commission presents the case that modern public schools have been racially segregated. Additionally, the process of segregation has affected where white children are taught--in private academies. It recognized by the Commission that Negro children lose "something by being compelled to attend separate schools. Further, the Commission believes that the separate facilities" in the public schools "are in the best interest of both races." Also, the school boards are to be given broad latitude in how they meet the needs of their student populations, including employing teachers, assigning pupils, and handling transportation and cafeteria issues.
