OUR TRUSTEE Under the progressive admin- istration of Nelson P. Swift, Trustee of Perry Township, South- port is erecting the much needed Junior High School. He is build- ing the school so that more rooms may be added to this proj- ect A which contains twenty- one classrooms and a cafeteria capable of feeding four hundred at one time, This building will be ready for occupancy by Septem- ber l953. When the final 52,000,000 project is completed in perhaps six to eight years, there will be four buildings, a classroom build- ing, cafeteria, a windowless au- dio-visual education building, and the gym. With foresight and unfaltering devotion the conscientious Mr. Swift has directed the school along a road of growth and achievement as manifested by this expansion plan. A break for us was when school was dismissed on September 29 l95l for the breaking of the ground for the new Perry Township Junior High School
