The district was organized dur
ing the war, but has not as yet
constructed a building, having
rented a room which has not
proved sufficiently large. 1t will
be necessary to build a building
for the primary grades this year,
and since the town is on the boun-
Diary line of Clackamas and Marion
counties it was thought that the
two counties could get together for
the erection of a school which will
supply the needs fthe commun-
ity for some time to come.
Monitor lies away from other
communities, the closest having
high schools being Mt. Angel,
Scitts Mills and Molalla.
