All YOUTH Wlll BE PROVIDED FOR ! The building has been planned in three sections. Each one can be operated separately. EAST WING QLarge assembly areas for pupils or publicj SVVIMMING POOL is 28' x 75'. For the first time in Lockport, swimming can become an integral part of the education for all children. CYMNASIUM can be divided by folding doors so that physical education can be carried on for boys and girls at the same time. This also will allow for a complete intra-mural program. There can be two basketball courts each 35' x 70' or one large court 48' x 82'. AUDITORIUM seats the entire student body. Stage is such that a full musical group can be ar- ranged comfortably within view of the audience. MUSIC DEPARTMENT adjoins auditorium. Large rehearsal room provides for choral and instru- mental groups. The six practice rooms allow for individual study. Storage space for music library, instruments, and uniforms is available. CAFETERIA provides for pupils and 36 teachers at one sitting. This will make for more effec- tive use of the school day because a single session is possible. CENTER SECTION fAcademic and Administration Area? CENTER UNIT will be used essentially for academic courses. Here will be housed rooms for Eng- lish, social studies, foreign language, mathematics, art, mechanical drawing, study halls, lib- rary, and the office suite for the principal and counselors. CLASSROOMS of varied sizes are provided so that effective use of space can be made. Each of the ' standard classrooms is designed so that ventilation and lighting are the best and the space is ample for storage, display and seating. Every room is to be equipped for use of audio and vis- ual aids in the instruction. TRAFFIC CONTROL is of the best because of the number of stairways leading to the first floor. Also the halls are wide enough to provide free movement during the passing of classes. ADMINISTRATION AND GUIDANCE OFFICES are conveniently located for students, teachers, and parents.
