The main floor of the high school building has been converted into an instructional media center and openings have been made to facilitate the movement of students into smaller groups for individualized study. In the Eureka Elementary School doors have been cut be- tween the fourth, fifth and sixth grade rooms to assist the three teachers who will be team teaching in these grades. The former nurses quarters have been remodeled to provide storage space for school supplies and the west end of the rooms is now equipped with furniture and a place for teachers to cooperatively, plan and evaluate curriculum changes. Three vacancies still exist on the faculty,. but now that the state department of public instruction has officially given approval to the educational program of the school district (given July 31, 1968), the administration hopes to fill the positions from the several applicants on file. When class work begins, the Eureka area schools will have the same number of faculty members as were employed last yar. The district will employ one more teacher because the Callao School, which has been closed for three years, will ore again be open for instruction. Several families have moved into the area and, from all indications and an official census, eleven students will be registered in the school. (Note: state regulations will not rermit a school with an enrollment below six, so Callao has a sufficient number of stue'ents.)
