CONGESTION
SCHOOL ROOMS
THING OP PAST
New School and 8th Grade
Grouping Plan is Solu
tion to Problem
Partln Bolutlon of the present
problem of congestion In the schools
will bo solved by only the new
Central school, vhl:h will be rcaJy
for occupation somotlme before
Christmas, but also by a plan of
grouping all pupils of tho eighth
grade together in the Central school.
By drawing the personucl of the
Eighth grade from each city sch.)l
the crowded conditions will probably
bo alleviated, according to J. P.
Well, city school superintendent.
"That la the biggest problem tint
confronts us now," Mr. Wells re
marked. "Last year the school .cen
sus showed 2007 between the ages
of four years and 20. within the
city limits. This year that number
will be greatly increased.
Congestion Problem
"The question arises, how are we
going to develop our school system
to keep abreast of the Increase la
population? We are building Cen
tral school, a project that mill cost
In the neighborhood of $195,000.
land with that investment we are
of icourso bonded up to the limit,
and can not issue bonds until the
retirement of those that arc outstanding."
The City school superintendent ad
mitted that tho city school board
was the owner of a valuable asset
In the old Central school property.
"It Isn't known JuhI what will
he done with the old Central sotiool"
"It depends," he said, "largely upon
the congestion in the school district.
If It is necessary, we will have to
take cm of the overflow from all
the other schools, in Central school.
Piiiblem May be Solved
"It may be that the present sys
tem, with the added space afford
ed by the new Central school and
also the new school rooms In Fair
view and Mills Addition schools, will
be sufficient to take care of tho
Increased enrollment that wo expect.
In that event the old Central school
will not be used after the new school
Is opened this year.
The city s.'hoal district Is the own
er of one of tho most 'valuable
pieces of property lu the city, name
ly the old Central school site. Con
servative estimates place the value
of this land, on Main between
KlKhth and Tenth, at betweeu $125,
000 and $150,00 0.
With the sale of this laud, the
school district would be enabled to
construct another school In some
other district where there Is a
need for one.
