PR ELMWOOD HIGH BUILDING NELLIE GARNER, PR WAYNE BUILDING RUTH SELBY, CLE ELMWOOD BUILDING CONSOLIDATION FOR BETTER EDUCATION The latter part of 1955 and the early part of 1956, the old Boards of the former Bloomdale, Cygnet, Portage, and Montgomery School Districts met together on numerous occasions to discuss the possibility of consolidating the four into one district. A survey was taken by the Ohio State University Survey Board and submitted to the Boards in April of 1957. The four Boards voted to consolidate in July 1957, and it was approved by the County Board of Education in August of 1957, effective in September 1957. The architect was hired in November 1957, a Citizen's Committee formed in December 1957, and the Bond Issue in the amount of 31,100,000 was voted on in May 1958 and passed. Contracts were let in September of 1958, and the ground breaking ceremonies were one week later, One year later in September of 1959, Elmwood High School was opened to the students of the former Bloomdale, Cygnet, Portage and Montgomery School districts. In April of 1960 Dedication was held and the keys were turned over the Elmwood Board of Edu- cation. Consolidation had been completed. It is the opinion of the Elmwood Board that much progress has been made towards the development of a comprehensive educational program. Continuous strong support is needed from the Elmwood School District to develop the Education Program to the highest level possible. On behalf of the Board I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation and gratitude to the Citizen's Committee for their untiring efforts and hard work in making this Building a reality. s, Del E. Phillips, President Elmwood Board of Education 2
