Mr. Light continued: "At present
we have no town hlpu school at nil. but:
the town is. and for many yours has
been maintaining four district high
schools: one in South Norwalk. one in
last Norwnlk. mm in the Over River
district and our in tho. Center district
1 have always been of the opinion that
lhuso district high schools are with
out legal status, as the law makes no
provision whatever for any district to
maintain II hlith school.
"There is a provision. unwavor. in
the general statutes. providing for
town high schools, and this not seek»
to bring the town under the high
school law. with this didcronco; ilu-
general high school law provides for
a committee not loss than three or
more. than live in number. with the
some powers as the district committee
and then gives the school board the
some power of the high school or
schools that it has over tho ordinary
graded schools.
“This act will place the high school
absolutely under town control and
elves the towns and the school board
tho same powers that the town and
school boards have under tho law. pro
vldins for the committee consolidation
of school districts. In other words. '1
simplifies the administration of the
high school. and requires that heron!»
tor there shall be but one school. and
that to be under the title of tho Nor
walk High school.
"But if the town and school board
think proper. this one school may b1-
