New School
Plans Made
EDMONDS. Wash.. Jan. 1 iPi A
new type classroom, developed by
William Arild Johnson. Everett
architect, after four investigating
trips around the United States. Is
being added to three Edmonds
grade schools. i
One unique feature being used for
the first time In class rooms Is con
struction of monitor windows placed
in the ceiling of the one-story addi
tion. Extending the length of the
room, the monitor window will dis
tribute light evenly throughout the
room.
"The Inside wall will be almost
light as that near the outside win
dow." Johnson said.
Interior partitions ore movable to
permit future alteration without
disturbance to the building. Glued
up laminated beams have replaced
conventional joint construction in
the ceiling to cut cost and eliminate
much nailing and bracing.
Window shades are eliminated by
the use of glass brick in the upper
part of the windows. "This also will
reduce heat loss," Johnson ex
plained. Gale Force Wind
