The total Stafffigures will be high by the number of special educationteachers, which I estimate at 60 within the elementary system,but the ratios for classroom teachers would be maintained,nonetheless.SchoolTotal Staff(1975-76)Black Teachers perSchool (1975-76)Black Teac:per School(1976-77)(recommend^AbbettAdamsAnthony WayneArlingtonBloomingdaleBrentwoodBuncheCroningerForest ParkFranke ParkGlenwood ParkHaleyHannaHarmerHarrisHarrison HillHillcrestHoaglandHollandIndian VillageIrwinLincolnLindleyMcCulloch1812111717151424241620251012243081921161514111011011050000333010200011611111121111222120211111220
