School Bond Issue Discussed
Based on the study of the Board of Education of the Preliminary Survey indicating the possibility of adding onto present buildings, con¬ struction of a new grade school pn the remote site or construction of a new high school on the ad¬ jacent site, it was found that fur¬ ther .study needs to be made to determine the most desireable solution.
An analysis of comparative costs of additions and remodeling of the present building based on the sur¬ vey and study indicated It would require the following:
I. Grade School Additions incl. H. S. 7,315 sq. ft. $14, Remodel¬ ing and patching! $102,500.
Basement: 1,320 sq. ft. $14, $18,500; First floor: 11,136 sq. ff. $14, $156,000 Remodeling for lock¬ er rooms, science and kitcihen, $19,500.
Second floor: 3,360 sq. ft. $14, $47,000; Remodeling fm: toil^, library, business education, and classes, $23,000.
Total $366,50a
II. New Sdmoi
- 22,180 sq. ft. 914. 9310/00.

T<Aai''$^tRJS». Comparing these costs of the additions and remodeling to a new Intermediate school on tlie adja¬ cent   site   of  approximately   the
.same square footsgc^ It is obviouf that it is more desirable and'econ¬ omically feasable to build the new structure.
The better value results be¬ cause no money would be spent for cutting, patching, revldng, cross-connecting, and comprimls- ing space, material, and equip¬ ment.
The school program would not be interrupted during construction, and the project could be com¬ pleted more quickly with less de¬ lays.
By moving out the Intennedl- ate classes that require tlie or^ ganized physical edticatioti, sci¬ ence, shop, and lundi program. It will be possible to use the class- loom space designed for Kinder¬ garten and prihiary claases now used by the Upper grades.
DeVel<^m«it of a mesttt- idan to cMistruct a separate secondary school encompassing the advanced teaching techniquee and teaching aids is of prime In^wrtlttiice to maintaining high: educational standards in Huntley.
