Due to the untiring, unselfish work of the members of the Board, this year we are adding another school to the three that now comprise the Central System. The school at Fishkill Plains was decided upon in November, 1954. It is expected to be completed and be in use by September, 1955. This is only one of the many fine things that our Board has done to keep our schools running smoothly throughout the years. XYfe appreciate their hours of work and worry and know that they will continue to make better the educational facilities in our school area. 4 Seated: Mr. Alexander Hamilton Mr. Roy CQ.
