Ross Whitworth 1 1 Director Cf. 'I..'..'f 5,1-109 Ch ROY L' 3 arle s Cie! Treasfsgfges Since the last issue of the Blue and White, Sedan Schools have been completely reorgan- ized. In compliance with the new law enacted last year by the Kansas Legislature, the County Reorganization Board placed fifteen rural districts with our former district, Sedan IJ., into one district to be known as School District R-2. This new district has an area of approxi- mately 192 square miles, with 83,400,000 valuation In order to serve this area it has been necessary to furnish transportation for more than Illpupils. This was accomplished by the purchase of three new busses and regular routes were established. While the board realises the routes have been a little too long they have plans to remedy this situation as soon as transportation becomes easier to obtain. Housing was a problem with the increased enrollment coming out oi' reorganization. Thi was solved by th s e moving of the Domestic Science Department to the new Homemaking Building and the using of those rooms for two sections of the ixth s grade moved from the llagga Kilmer building. At the Homenaldng building in addition to the clothing and cooking classes a com- plete lunch room to serve 300 pupils each day has been established. Here children receive s well balanced meal for fifteen cents. At the present time this project, with the nine cent subsidy given by the Federal Lunch Program,hes financed all lunches and has added additional equipment to the building. As materials are available the building is being improved and by the end of the year the school will have five additional modern school rooms for use in their school program. lem- bers of the board now are spending much time in planning for the future improvement of the school plant facilities An archit ct . e is working on plans which are to be suhnitted soon which will solve the educational need of the school for years to come.
