The session conducted by Mrs. Jerry Her rington, president of the unit, was held in. the recently com pleted multi-purpose room at Patrick Elementary school oh Second ave. The superintendent said that in spite of some criticism nation wide that schools are building marble palaces with a tremendous amount of un necessary expenditures he docs , not believe, that school District 6 is guilty of need' less spending. He explained to tne group tnat tne additional classrooms and multi-purpose building cost $122,031. This he added is a cost of $10.10 per square foot which was considered by officials of the district to be an excellent bid. Additional Uses ' He told of extended uses of the multi-purpose room. The cafeteria tables are collapsible and mobile so that the room . may be used for eating. Then 'Within a few minutes the ta blos may be removed and the room used for various educa tional purposes, meetings, physical education classes and eventually basketball games when money is available for backboards and baskets. The floor is laid out for basketball, volley ball, badminton and shuffle board.- Also included in the bid is a rolled-window for the serv- - ing area to isolate the kitchen. .This equipment is expected to arrive soon. -, . . To place all ,the necessary stage curtains that will add to the appearance of the room, the cost will be over $1,000. He said that It is hoped funds wilt be available out of the bond money for the. curtains. , He said the cost of roll-away bleachers would be about '$1,500 for three sixteen foot .sections, three rows high. He referred to the growth in the district in the past two ' years. On Sept. 30, 1958 there were 2,177 students enrolled ' in District 6 schools. 2,312 stu dents were enrolled on Sept. 30, 1989 and on Sept.' 30, 1060 . there was an enrollment of 2, 441 pupils in District 6 schools. This is a 5.3 per cent ' Increase, the superintendent ' said. .... 'v t"; iTighait Increase : s He said that proportionate ly Gold Hill schools had the ' highest increase of any school ' in the district this year. En rollment over a three year pe riod in Gold Hill was 278 in i'1958, 26B in 1959 and 316 in ,1960. School officials are now (in the. process of taking the annual school census, he said. This is demanded by the law and Includes ages (our to 19 years. . " ' Meyer said that It is impos sible to predict the area of stu dents that will Increase the most. Grade three at Patrick Elementary school In Gold ' Hill this year was an example of Concentration of students. It is always necessary to in vestigate to see whether the ' jump is due to temporary fruit workers or students who will YOU CAW AFFORD WALL-to-WALL CARPET . . .

The present budget includes almost $100,000 for transpor tation, he said. This amount of money makes this section of the school budget in District 6 big business. Sixty-five per cent of students in District 6 ride buses and this means 1 600,000 student miles in 180 school days. He stressed the importance of students bring. ing a note from parents when any change is necessary. The superintendent said the transportation system needs a great deal of cooperation from parents in getting few er stops. He said that it is get ting almost to the point where the bus driver is expected to stop at every home. This he added is expensive and time consuming. School officials are questioning why it is nec essary for so many stops in the rural areas, when many students who reside in town walk as much as a mile dis tance to school.
