If we get this bond issue approved, we would put another addition on at Clinton, he said in a telephone interview with this reporter Monday. There are plans to try to alleviate that situation (inadequate facilities). It is in the plans to add portable classrooms. The school board authorized the district to authorize bids for 13 additional portable classrooms district wide. orders. A man, apparently from Clinton, called district personnel questioning such a project aimed at improving school facilities, Deputy Supt. Lawrence Welling said. Id said that it was the job of the board of education to provide those funds and a person shouldnt have to make a second contribution. My impression was that there had been selling by the students. I dont think theres anyone saying the PTA shouldnt help the students.. mitting advertising through sound system or distribution brochures, leaflets, bookcovers, and other materials for any purpose other than that which is directly connected with the school activities. Dr. Welling said it was necessary to have a rather broad policy because of potential problems. Youve got a captive audience (in the schools), and many salesmen see it as a way to sell their wares. Hardly a week goes by that we're not asked to use the kids (to try to sell - something). APPARENTLY THE most pressing need, to. Mrs. Robinson, was new encyclopedia sets. In a visit to the . school, somewhat tattered sets were seen by this reporter. A list provided by Mrs. Robinson indicated two 1975 sets, one 1966, three from 1965, including one of those sets in the library, one from 1963.and one 1960. , But problems didnt end there,1 she said. With 11 housing developments planned, growth will continue to affect the.school, already housing 450 students, including some in two portable classrooms. Projections call for 80 more students next fall. A two session kindergarten will handle some of that load. Principal Smith said.

But due to heat generated from the adjacent tarred roof, It gets so hot in the spring and fall that it makes it 120 degrees in there and the kids can: stand it. Its easier to stand for one hour as a library than all day as a classroom. The library is stocked with about 4,000 books, or about eight books per student, Mr. Smith said. However, audiovisual aids must be stocked throughout the school ior lack of space in the media center or library. . WERE THE books and audiovisual material aHjQ,one room the school might have a fulltime library aide, Mrs. Robinson said. Wasatch School (in Clearfield) with 253 students has a librarian. If you have everything together you can get a fulltime librarian. Mrs. Robinson also said some classrooms lacked facilities found in other schools.
