Applying families should be those with the father, mother and children living together and preferably the mother should not be working.

This need became especially great because teach ing methods changed and more experimenting was done by the students than before. Because of this increased' experimentation, new ma terials, better equipment, and a larger working area became necessary. The first improvements of the science facilities began in 1959 when room 225 was remodeled and the physics classroom moved from the basement to this newly modernized room. At that time it was also planned to remodel the oth er science rooms, but school district funds ran short and the rooms couldn’t be re modeled that year.

The school district had to distribute its funds where they were most needed. Finally, a levy passed in 1963 gave the school funds to do nec essary remodeling in the science rooms. Previous to this there had been much discussion on how to remodel the science section.. Because of poor plumbing, lack of adequate space, and other disadvantages, it was decided tht is would be better and prob ably cost no more to build an entire new wing instead of sim ply remodeling out-dated rooms. Original plans by Dr. Kleiner and the science department were to make the wing two stories high. A corridor,on the second floor was to connect the science wing to the main building. This plan proved to be too expensive. A new plan was developed making the wing one story high with no connection to the main building. Work on the wing be gan in February of 1966 and was completed over Christmas vaca tion.
