The task of operating the schools of the R-5 District is a big one, but the problems of 1956-57 have been multiplied enormously The Nevada Junior-Senior High School was destroyed by fire the night of November 29. By noon of November 30 a School Board com- mittee was negotiating for emergency quar- ters. Various board committees were at work daily on some phase of the emergency, and within the next five weeks, the School Board met fourteen times . The first students to return to school, the eighth graders, were at their desks within seven days . By january 2 all Junior-Senior high school students were attending their classes again. Superintendent Jones and the members of the Board kept the public well-informed, stres sing the fact that the new building would det- ermine the character of education for the next century. The community is indeed fortunate to have these administrators and School Board mem- bers to direct the educational activities of this area.
