Training School Of Muskegon, the Kali
amazoo High School, the Sturgis High
School and the Manistique High School.
They are as good architects as can be
secured anywhere. They have made
two recommendations First, to tear
down the old half OF the old building
and to construct in its place high
school building which will contain a
session room, six class rooms, office
and toilets. The new half of the old
building will be joined to it and the
rooms to be used for science, COM
mercial and domestic science. An ad-
dition to the east of the present high
school building will provide for manual
training and agriculture and heating
plant in the basement with the auditor
ium above. These two buildings COM
bined with the heating plant will cost
$4,000. But this cost will not be as
great as il would be to combine both
buildings into one large building for
the reason that the high school session
room and auditorium would have to be
supported by much stronger walls than
in the present plan. The present high
school building under this arrangement
would be used for the grades. The
second plan provided for by these
architects is to tear down the old half
of the old building and to rebuild in
the place of the portion torn down a
new building containing four rooms,
the same as now and to build an audi
torium, agriculture and manual train
ing building the same as in the first
plan. This arrangement provides for
the present high school building to be
kept for the high school and the pres
ent grade building to be kept for the
grades. The total cost of these will be
$68, 900.
