Architect Ken Naylor recounted how the preliminary plans for the new school were presented Vk years ago in the library of the old Middle School. He remembered that the school board and staff gave some very firm criteria of things they wanted in the new school. Calvin Allred, for example, said the building had to have a pitched, shingled roof. You will notice, he that is what the finished said, building has. Naylor praised other school officials and added, The school board wanted a building that would be an asset to the city. He said it was not an expensive building. It was, in fact, one of the most economical buildings to be built in the state in the last 10 years. He went on to tell of steps taken to add to the comfort and convenience of the building. He pointed out that the wall carpeting gives a softness to the brick walls. He also said there is a mechanical mezzanine on the floor directly above to facilitate any necessary repairs. Construction Manager Albert Winterrose said that building the school was the same as building 60 to 65 homes. He said the cost of the building was $43 a square foot which he considered a good price. Winterrose said he would like to see other school districts have the kind of building program he has seen here and added, local people had been hired where possible. Winterrose said the landscaping, sprinkling system and sod will be finished as soon as the weather permits. Representative Ray Nielsen told the people that such a building is a which great accomplishment doesnt just happen by accident. He told of funds obtained from the federal government and by the state government. Nielsen suggested that we must make better use of our public facilities. We can no longer afford to use school building eight hours a day and five days a week. The people you elect to public office will decide what happens in education for many years to come. Get involved! Dont expect your neighbors to do it alone. Within the next decade, decisions will be made to decide the fate of the community, state and nation. School Board President Allen Hall expressed appreciation for the support of the patrons and to the teachers who come with ideas to improve education. He told the crowd, We hope you will continue to help us build up the school district. Superintendent Harold Johnson thanked all those who had helped with the building in any way. He said, Education is a effort. We cant make children learn. Learning comes from within. We hope that homes will accept the responsibility they have to teach their children. It is our goal to provide the stimulus, facts, etc. to lead to a productive nation. It doesnt matter what we do as long as we do it well. Johnson read a letter from Senator Orrin G. Hatch who helped with the funding of the property. He also thanked the Moroni City Council and the County Commissioners for the efforts they have made in behalf of the new school.
