T-O'MAl-IAWK FACILITIES In the 1951 Tomahawk two complete pages were used to show the need for better physical fa- cilities in our school. These pictures and written facts were so honestly and accurately presented that the voters of the community ,tiirculated a petition during April of 1952, requesting, the Board of Education of our unit to hold an elec- tion which would call for remodeling thelpresent plant and for adding .a new physiaal j education building. On Saturday, May 24, 1952, this propo- sition along with a request for the inoney to pay for such work was voted on by the voters-sand was passed. The proposed plans call for a complete voca- tional agricultural department in the present physical education roomg a cafeteria and music department over the farm shop. The cafeteria room will be used as a commu- nity room, a study hall, and as a general assembly TOOIIL A new physical education building will be built to the east of the present building. By using roll- away bleachers this room may be so divided as to conduct two classes at the same time, thus provid- ing opportunity for all to meet this requirement. By the building of these additions, more class- rooms will be made available to take care of pres- ent crowded rooms and will take care of the expected growth in school population during the years ahead. I These improvements will enable our school to provide the educational opportunities which our present and' future standard of living require. We, the Class of '52, are proud of the progress that has been rnade during the past year toward making ours a better school. We wish to com- mend all who helped make this project possible. We are glad that 'we, too, were able to have a small part in helping to meet the needs of our school through a new building program.
