3. The basement at the West
Ward could easily and with little ex-
pense be converted into a winter
playroom for the children to be used
in stormy weather instead OF an out
door C
4. The following building require
ments: Additional window venti-
lators; screens for the windows to
reduce breakage of glass; shut-off
drinking fountains for the ward
schools and for Central School: re-
pair of leaks in the roof at Central
School and the East Ward; a new
electric conduct at Central. as the
water follows the old one, which
comes all the way from the alley to
the north of us; concrete Dashboard
in Central basement as water seep-
age is causing wall to crumble; new
window shades in first grade East
Ward: b~lackboards replaced and
painting where new chimneys were
constructed at Ward Schools.
5. The shower baths and the boys
toilets should be altered so that the
floors be flushed with a hose and
the water drained off through q
drain in the floor. This will make
it possible to keep them clean and
will improve the ventilation. This Is
impossible as they are now.
6. Some painting should be done
this year. The hall and classrooms
at the West Ward and the first floor
hall OF Central and the High School
as we'll as some of the classrooms at
Central are badly in need OF paint.
7. The work of looking after the
health and physical welfare of the
children has 20 received a good
start, having been carried on for two
years. We should have a full-time
school nurse next year to carry on
this work which is now we'll under

in the General Petroleum Oil Camp.
which is in School District No. 3.
There were a number of children in
camp and 1t was necessary for this
district to provide a school for them
which was done. Late in the winter
this school had to close because the
shall have to have a school out there
next year or not we do not know al
this time.
The schools this winter undertook
to handle a Lyceum Course, the
Senior Glass assuming responsible
ity for the sale OF tickets and putting
out the advertising. The course was
successful every way except fin
ancially, and while twenty Of the
business men are g%uarantors for the
finances OF the course, yet we hope
to be able to make up the deficit by
means of school entertainments. We
feel that the Lyceum Course was very
much worth while. even IL It did not
pay for itself.
The schools did their share in
providing funds for the furnishing
OF the hospital. The schools raised
$4,000 for the purpose of furnish
Ing the children's ward at the hos
p1tal. Also they put on a Potato
Day" when each child brought one
potato for the hospital. Quite a
lot OF potatoes were collected in this
way and turned over to the hospital.
There was considerable demand
this year for evening classes. Ac-
cordingly Mr.. Coxen, State Director
of Vocational Training. came down
and helped us get this work organ
lied. A class was organized in
Americanization Work and Citizen
ship for foreigners. A considerable
number enrolled for this work. The
work given was in speaking and
writing English and in government
and citizenship. A class in Blue
Print Reading and Shop Sketching'
Tor shop men was also organized.
This class was also well attended.
These classes continued for ten
weeks. State aid was received for
this work. Also classes in CONNER
cial work and in public speaking
were organized. These classes also
continued for ten weeks Or more and
a good deal of interest was manifest
ed in this work. The night school
work this year was largely in the
nature OF an experiment to de-
NINE lHe demand Tor THIS work.
Next year we hope to carry on this
work on a larger scale than this year.
We hope to offer a greater variety
OF courses and the work will be or
ganized better than this year.
Mi. Summary and Recommended
tons
l.. In justice to the people who
live on the South Side I believe it
would be we'll to establish a two
room school down there. This
would also tend to relieve the con-
gestion in our lower grades. Two
teachers could handle the first four
grades. II the census shows that
there are not enough pupils for that,
one teacher could handle the work
for the present.
2. An architect should be en-
ployed to see what repairs are neces-
sary for the gymnasium floor which
is bullying, due to moisture, also to ,
determine how the balcony might be
changed so as to accommodate more

1t would be we'll to make some
provision for some clerical assistance
in the office Of the superintendent.
AS 1t is now he must spend a con-
siderable part of his time attending
to correspondence, records. reports
and routine clerical work which
could be done as well by someone
else, giving him more time for super
vision.
8. For the High School: Regular
high school recitation desks for the
Foreign Language class room to take
the place Of the old. WORKOUT
benches; three dozen folding chairs
to be used in the assembly room to
take care Of the crowds for special
occasions; one Western Union clock
on each floor OF the high school, as
we have no adequate c~lock-system;
the library needs additional room,
also more book-shelves for the books
that are added to the library each
year; foot-lights are needed for the
stage in the high school assembly
room.
10. The School Board should have
a steel filing case where the records
and papers of the district could be
kept. There is no adequate provision
for filing the records and papers
where they will be safe from fire and
loss through being mislaid.
IL. A curb should be constructed
on either the east or the west side
of Central School so that in another
year O two this work will be COM
pleted on all -four sides. also a side
walk should be constructed on the
west side of the West Ward School.
~. Some repairs are needed on
the playground equipment. also it
would be desirable to add certain
pieces Of equipment II funds could
be allowed for this purpose.
Respectfully submitted.
