(Present needs require at least five additional classrooms. Ten classes each day are held in temporary quarters, i.e. Seminary, Lunch Room Center, and the Palomar . . . Approximately 20 student hours are lost each day). (2) Auditorium of adequate size to serve schools and community. (3) Suitable Lunch Room Center. (Present lunch center is obsolete, obso-lete, inadequate in size and a fire hazard). (4) Faculty Room and Sick Room. (At present, we have neither). (5) More storage room per department. (At present, there is very little). (6) Gymnasium and Physical Education Plant. (With facilities that could serve all phases of our athletic program as well as Health Instruction. This would eliminate the $3000 rental at the Palomar). (7) Include in the overall plan accomodations for both junior and senior high schools under one administration (eliminating the expense of duplicate facilities). THE PROPOSED EXPENDITURES OF $79,000 ON DELTA HIGH SCHOOL WOULD NOT FILL ANY OF THE A-BOVE A-BOVE NEEDS.
