Norwich bulletin., 1922-02-23

Year two rooms would be on part time. |
The transfer Of the sixth grade TO thel
NatchauK school would remedy this for
the present time at least. At the Nat
chang school there are fourteen stand
ard size class rooms and $50 pupils IN
attendance or an average Of forty pu-
pills to one room. This is too crowded
for satisfactory work and there is
great disadvantage in the crowding of
two grades in one room. The present
building was occupied during 1914 and
1915 by 40 pupils, the present regis
tration Is $50. The registration in June
1929, will be $50 more tina height years
! ago, a gain of 81 per cent. If in the
next eight years the gain is the same,
the increase of 207 pupils would fill
| six-room building. At the rate $50 in
crease they would fill eight room build
| ing in Is years and at the rate of 81
per cent would fill an eight room build
| ing in Ii years. If the six grades of
| the Oak school are taken over by the
| Natchaug school this would mean an adj
| ditional increase at the Natchaug
| school. It would appear therefore that
| a new building ought to contain at least
| eight rooms and this is what is recon-
| mended For economy and convenience
| +Le new building ought to be connected
! with the present building. The best
l
| end of the kindergarten room.
| This would be high enough to permit
| the passage of teams underneath. There
| should be room in a new building
| large enough to permit the assembling
| of pupils of FIVE or six rooms, at least,
| for exercises on various occasions This
room could be constructed so that when
necessary it could be divided into class
rooms. The kindergarten could be
changed to the south of the new build
Ing with the same exposure. The pres
| emit teachers rooms would be large
| enough to accommodate the extra quo
Ia OF teachers and the new building
| could be heated from the present build
Ing as only one of the boilers is now in
use The report Is signed by ". r.
King and Hormidas Dion and C. c.
Case.
A motion was made and approved
that the seleetmen be requested TO call
a town meeting to give the school board
authority to expend not more than $500
TO have preliminary plans prepared for
an addition to Natchaug school and tc
explain the necessity of said addition
| the building not to consist of more thar
| eight school rooms and necessary base
ment and toilet facilities and these
reems to be Joined as an annex to. the
present school building.
The meeting was adjourned at o.
/ clock.
