Addition to West Geauga
Houses 90 Seventh Graders

CHESTERLAND - Ninety :
three seventh grade students re-
turned to the West Geauga Jun
ior Senior high school building
on Monday, Jan. 23,as addition
al space became available
through completion of the high
school addition. The move re-
turns the high school to the
status OF a six year high
school, as formerly. The move
also hrings an end to the need
for dividing teachers in the sev-
eral subjects between the high
school and Chestlernd buildings
Supt. G.. Robert Fox announ.
ced that within the course OF
two to three years, the enroll
ment would be of sufficient size
to permit full separation of jun
ior high and senior high stu
dents in terms Of teacher as
signments and classroom facil-
tiles. At present. this is not pos
sible, due to the need for spec
ialized subject teachers at both
levels. Previous predictions of
enrollments in the high school
were increased as the result of
a recent study to an expected
493 in the school year 1856 81
and SOL n the school year 1857 =
So.
Refurnishing of a classroom
formerly occupied as a tenn
porary shop room was expected
to be completed by January 30
for use as a general Science
and Biology classroom. Redec-
Grating of the room will be post
poned to next summer, however
The additional 7th grade stu
dents brought the current high
school enrolment to 435 STU
dents. A revised schedule OF
classes was placed in operation
to utilize as efficiently as pos
sible the II clasSrooms avail
able in the high school building.
Reading Achievement used As
AS Basis For Division
Availability of additional class
rooms at the high school has
resulted in released space for
elementary classes at the Ches-
terland Elementary school as
we'll as at the Russell Elemen-
tary school. Fifty nine 4th
and 5th grade pupils from the
Russell building have been NOV
ed to the CheSterland building
and a further division made at
the Russell building in the End,
3rd, 5th, and 9th grades.

Realizing that a split section
Is not the best possible situa-
ton in all cases, school Off
cials decided to select groups OF
pupils who would fit well to-
gether for split section classes.
Reading achievement has been
used primarily as the criterion
for division. Work in the split
classes would be geared to pu-
pills of high reading achieve
ment.
School authorities stressed
that the division was not made
on the basis of mental ability.
The division into smaller class
sizes at the levels concerned
will permit better instruction be-
cause of more opportunity af--
forded for individual help. Split
classes viii be In the End :
3rd grades, taught by Mrs. Cher
rie Mintern, and in the 5th 9Th
grades, taught by Mrs. Helen
DeVoe.
Reassignment Of pupils brings
the enrolment at Chester to
435 and at Russell TO 308.
Need For State Building Aid
Reported By Superintendent
A report filed recently by Supt
G. Robert Fox of the West &C.
auga schools to the State De-
partment of Education analyZed
the requirements of the local
schools for state aid from the
$50 million dollar building pro-
gram recently, voted in Ohio.
Broken down in the report were
the needs from local bond is
sues and from additional State
support on the basis Of antici-
pated school building needs for
calendar years 1856 through 19-
so.
Supt. Fox indicated an i'm
mediate need in 1856 for $780,
900 to augment funds available
locally for building purposes.
The $3.50, 900 would supplement
an estimated $128, 900 that could
legally be voted locally in 1856
for building purposes. Of pri-
mary Importance would be the
provision of an adequate high
school gymnasium that would
release classroom space now
used for Physical Education at
the high school, therby increas-
ing the number of classrooms
by at least two rooms when a
gymnasium becomes available.
Need was also indicated for
additional elementary class
rooms in 1859 and 1860 in ad-
dition to tn eight classrooms to
be constructed at the Chester
land building this year,
Something will eventually
have to be done at Russell" the
Superintendent stated, either
to improve the facilities in
the annex or to replace the an
mex with standard clasSroomS. "
The Superintendent agreed in
the report that any State grant
to the West Geauga schools in
1856 could be utilized prior to
January l, 1857, through award
of a school building contract.
The West Geauga district is
listed among those school dis
tricts requiring assistance in
providing necessary school fac
ilities between now and 1860.
Substitute Bus Drivers Sought
Additional substitute bus dri-
vers are being sought by the
West Geauga schools to fill in
on regular routes when need
ed. The schools are reduced to
one substitute driver at this
time. Int the event of illness or
other absence, in excess Of one
driver, routes must be combined
or other wise seriously delayed
Drivers are required to have
a chauffer's permit and should
have some experience driving
a truck. Application should be
made to the Superintendent of
tn West Geaua Schools, Ches-
terland, Ohio Park 9-7211.
