NEED ROOM At
SOUTH RIVER
School Accommodations Are
Inadequate at Present.
Special to the EVENING NEUs.

South River, Aug. 3.-south
Rivers school population is growing
in leaps and bounds and, already,
the present school accommodations
are inadequate to provide facilities
for all the children in the borough
Of school age. This fact Is true,
even though a new eight-room school
was erected and opened last year to
provide Don for the congested
grades at school No. I and the over
flow which had been taken care of
In two annexes, one over the rest
office building, where the overflow
from the fifth and sixth grades
went, while a second annex was To-
Gated on the second floor of the
Whitehead building, corner Of Main
and Obert streets, which was occu-
pied by the seventh and eighth
grades.
When the new school was opened
last fall the fifth, sixth, seventh and
eighth grades were transferred to
the new building and placed in
rooms on the second floor, while the
four rooms on the first floor were
occupied by the overflow Of the
kindergarten, first, second and
fourth years that had crowded them
selves out Of the old building and
had been attending school only one
session a day.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1911-08-03

When the new school was opened
the extra grades and overfows were
easily accommodated, and it looked
as though there would be plenty Of
room for several years before a new
addition or a new school would be
needed, but this prophecy was not
based upon a knowledge Of the ire
mendOus growing ability Of the Dor
ough, as the new building was as
crowded at the close Of school in
June as the old building was before
the first annex was opened.
Now the Board of Education is
confronted with the problem of pro-
viding extra rooms in which to
place the overflow Of the new school.
This means that within another year
the citizens Of South River Will be
called to vote upon another bond
issue with which to erect a new
school or build a substantial addi-
ton to school No. 2. If neither a
new building nor an addition On
Of the present schools is erect
ed, then the board will be compelled
to open q new annex every year
represents a greater expense
to maintain than the interest on q
bond issue. The board is trying to
