BOARD OF EDUCATION STOCKBRIDGE VALLEY C. R. SCHOOLS MUNNSVILLE, N. Y. r A. J. Goubert, Pres. Arthur Trew Dru so Be Grant Fred Scott Ernest Foster Because of the defense needs of our Country, the schools will find it impossible to purchase materials for expanding facilities unless there is a most desperate need. Schools do have a priority rating which enables them to make replacements if available. The Board feels that we were very fortup nate in getting the much needed extension of facil- ities at the High School by the building of the Ag- riculture shop and two classrooms which were started last June and completed in November. Such a project could not be started now. In fact, some difficulties were encountered in obtaining materials at that time. final financing on the new addition will be completed before the end of the school year. The funds came from the following sources: N.!.A. Federal Government: Local current school balance on hand: Appropriations of current funds in last year's and in this year's school budget: balance of bond money on hand: and authorization to raise up to 86,000 in bonds. It appears now that considerable less than that will have to be raised, and next years tax rate will remain the same as it is at present. Yours very truly, A. J. Goubert 9
