- Description:
- Mrs. N.L. Thornton inquired about housing discrimination on the Chalaco campus. The response from Dr. Leon Wall, Superintendent, Chalaco Indian School, explained the housing policies at Chalaco. The school has limited quarters available and a specific allocation process based on job responsibilities and contributions to the school. The Thorntons had experienced difficulties with neighbors in the past, and the school had delayed approving Thornton's trial period. The school expressed regret that the Thorntons were unhappy but stated they had no other alternative.
