After conferring with parents this spring, district officials grouped elementary students at Monroe and Washington into four tracks designated by different colors: Blue, green, red and yellow. These tracks then were given a schedule of classes and vacations and sent to parents before the normal school year ended.

This was a monumental task, but I think 95 percent of the parents got their first or second choice in placement, Robinson said. It was the most time-consuming thing Ive ever worked on. Both Bartsch at Washington and Osterling at Monroe said school officials have received very few complaints from parents. Bartsch said ample advance public education on year-round schooling most likely led to Mondays smooth transition into a new and foreign schedule. WASHINGTON (AP) Consumer prices rose a moderate 0.3 percent in June as the biggest jump in energy prices in 20 months was partly offset by muted cost increases or even declines in other categories, the government said today.

The seasonally adjusted June advance in the Labor Departments Consumer Price Index was anticipated by most economists, who said inflation proses little threat to the economy. The consumer index had risen only 0.1 percent in May and 0.2 percent in April. In a separate report, the Commerce Department said retail sales which represent roughly a third of overall economic activity rose a modest 0.5 percent in June to a seasonally adjusted $159.8 billion. But most of the sales strength came in automobiles. Excluding that sector, sales edged only 0.1 percent higher.

Analysts said lackluster sales and low inflation are both symptoms of the sluggish recovery from the 1990-91 recession. Inflation is low because of lousy demand. There arent a lot of dollars chasing goods out there," said economist Sung Won Sohn of Norwcst Corp. in Min-' neapolis. For the year so far, inflation was running at an annual rate of 3.1 percent, the same as last years price rise for the full year and well below the 6.1 percent rate in 1990.

In June, energy prices rose 2 percent, the biggest increase since October 1990, when Iraqs invasion of Kuwait sent oil prices skyrocketing. Gasoline prices rose 3.2 percent while fuel oil was up 3.2 percent and natural gas, 1.3 percent. Still, gasoline costs were 14 percent below their peak level of November 1990. Food prices, meanwhile, rose a scant 0.1 percent in June. Vegetable prices fell 0.7 percent, the third consecutive decline.

The price of pxrk, eggs and fish also fell. Beef, poultry, dairy and cereal product prices rose. For the year so far, food prices were rising at just a 0.1 percent annual rate, compared with an increase of 1.9 percent in all of 1991, which was the smallest in 15 years. Excluding the volatile food and energy components, prices increased 0.2 percent in June, the same as in May. For the first six months of 1992, this core rate of inflation was rising at a 3.8 perccm annual rate, down from 4.4 percent for all of last year and5.2perccni in 1990.

Clinton, a supporter of abortion rights, pushed away the mans pen, then got into a limousine for a ride to Central Park, where he jogged and shook hands with onlookers.

I think its going to be highly successful for 95 percent of the population, he said, because you can never please 100 percent." Robinson said several of the concerns raised by parents in February when the year-round schedules were being formulated have been addressed by district officials.

For example, she said, child care will be provided by the Kings County Community Action Organization for students who may find themselves on a one-month vacation in the middle of February. Suzie Fonseca, resource and referral coordinator at the organization, said only about five parents of students at Monroe and Washington schools have called her office inquiring about child care in July. It looks like they all took care of their child care in advance, she said. However, Fonseca said she expects a flurry of calls from parents in September, when nearly 400 students who would normally be in school will be on vacation for a month. Hanford Elementary School District.

The assemblies are being presented to more than 1,000 students who began year-round classes Monday. The intent of the presentations is to inform students that they must be cautious when walking near their schools. Teachers at Monroe and Washington will present traffic safety lessons to kindergarten through sixth grade students throughout the week. Also, maps that show the safest route to school will be sent home with the children on Friday, Robinson said. Because of year-round scheduling, the Stop on a Dime assemblies will be presented again in August and September when other HESD schools begin their year, Robinson said.
