Reporter, David H«raner The School Boai^Z^R Huntley Consolidated School met Thuirsday, November 14, 1963 for its regular monthly meeting with all members present. After the minutes were read and approved, fund transfers were made according to law. Bus reports wero checked. There have been inquiries from several individuals concerning the disposi¬ tion of the old bus being replaced this month. The bus will be offered for sale on closed bids, it is a Su¬ perior body with a 1948 Clievrolet body. Anyone interested may con¬ tact Mr. Tom Kelly at the School. It was decided to repair the driveway and turn around at the South end of the school. The work on the painting of the gwm has been completed and along with the new accoustical ceiling makes a marked improvement. Darryl Reeves has replaced La¬ Verne Jordi who has resigned as janitor's assistant. The Slave Sale has been an¬ nounced for the 29th of November at 8 p.m. with Howard Ruth acting as auctioneer. A report on the Committee for Agricultiu-e Educa¬ tion was piiesented by CJeorge Adains, Board Member. Officers for the Committee for the coming year are as follows: Chairman-Al¬ vin Hoffman; Vice Chairman, W. Sherwin, Secretary. Herb Heim¬ soth; Treasure, Emil Workowski. The resignation of Board Mem¬ ber, Adeline Kunde wa-s accepted since she has moved out of our district. Ernie Stading Jr. was ap¬ pointed to fill out the remainder of her term until the next election. CXirrent bills were read and ap¬ proved paid. There was discussion and plan¬ ning regarding hoper for additions to our school. The Public will re¬ ceive more information about this in the very near future. The next Board Meeting vidll be on Wednesday, December 11, at 7:30 p.m. The meeting was ad¬ journed. Audrey Korwin Board scribe 2 New in 8 Alden - Herbon and Richmond High Schools were accepted as members of the Little "8" Con¬ ference, effective as of the 1964-65 school year. With the addition of Hebron and Richmond to the conference, therp will now be nine teams participa¬ ting in football, and eight in basket ball. For the 196465 school year, due to scheduling conflicts and confer¬ ence realignments, every attempt will be made to adjust schedules to include the new members. How¬ ever, due to existing contract com¬ mitments it is very doubtful whether a full schedule of confer¬ ence football games can be ar¬ ranged with Hebron and Ridhmond and other Little "8" Cwiference schools for 1964. These conflicts probably will not effect either bas¬ ketball or the Spring sports for tiie 1964-65 sdiool year. The Huntley Cons. Schools Ca¬ det Band, grades 6, 7, and 8, and the Junior Oiorus, grades 7 and 8, vrill present their Annual Winter Concert, Friday evening, Nov. 22, 1963 at 8:15 p.m. at the Huntley Cons.

Our school district was included in the college district as it is set up on a county wide basis and it is necessary that we vote on this issue. We made our position known to the college committee, neverthe¬ less, unknown to us, our district Was madp a part of the McHenry (bounty Junior Cbllege district and therefore this forces us to hold a referendum on this issue. This year our Kindergarten en¬ rollment is 78 to date. This means our first grades next year will be very overcrowded and this proBIem will continue to grow. Only about half of our students desiring com¬ mercial courses can be accommo¬ dated now. Our cafeteria space is Hmited making it necessary to ar¬ range our academic schedule to permit m hours of lunch time to handle the students. The boys and girls locker rooms are so small half of the students in the bym classes must wait outside while the other half dresses. Our gui¬ dance director has a small comer of the scihool clinic as an office and could use more space. Addi¬ tional space is also needed for chemistry, physics and science classes. There are many subjects we •would like to add to our curricu¬ lum In order to round out our high school schedule. We should be able to offer an Industrial Arts course, speech class and our social studies should be expanded. We feel that the tax money re¬ quired to establish a Junior Col¬ lege, if paid into our own school district, would make it possible for us to bring our school up to the standards your school board knows you desire.
