Alexandra Schools
Expect Enrolment
.0fMore Than $500

Between $500 and 1000 school
children are expected to enter
Alexandria's II schools when they
open Wednesday, according to T. G.
Williams, superintendent of schools.
Mr.. williams warned parents that
If their children have not been reg
istered by Wednesday, they may
have to wait several days before
attending school, since no further
registration is planned before Sep
tember 13. All schools will be open
for registration from $3.50 to 4 Tues
day.
Mr.. Williams announced that all
plans have been made to open the
new Federal Works Agency-con-
structed school on Janney's lane,
although the FWA has not signed
the lease turning the school over to
the Alexandria Board of Education,
nor has the board received the
check for funds allocated by FWA
for assistance in operating the
school.
Count on Lease by Wednesday.
1--WE are assuming that the FWA
will keep its promise and that we
will have the signed lease before
Wednesday Mr.. williams said. 1--WE
wish to provide schooling for the
children living at Cameron Valley
and Cliinquapin Village for whom
the school was built he said, "but
We may be forced to close the school
at any time during the term If the
promised funds are not forthcom-
ing or If the FWA does not sign
the lease which has already been
signed by the Alexandria Board OF
The lease provides that
the school will be operated only if
adequate funds are received to
maintain it.
With regard to the Parkfairfax
school now under construction by
FWA, Mr.. Williams expressed doubt
that 1t will be completed when the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.'S
housing project opens in October.
No Promises Made.
The superintendent revealed that
he had written Miles Colean, local
Metropolitan representative, sug-
gesting that Parkfairfax rental off,
cials refrain from putting too many
families with elementary age chill
dren in the apartments before the
school is completed.
1--WE can probably take care of
few Parkfairfax children in the ex-
isting schools" Mr.. Williams said,
but we are making no promise to
take care OF them before the COM
pletion of the school. Past expe-
rience leads us to believe that the
October / date set for its completion
is too optimistic"
