Some which came about this year are a new agriculture building and a full agriculture course, a better equipped and improved industrial arts room, a book rental system, and a modernization of the home economics de- partment in an attempt to meet the Smith-Hughes requirements. Some library improvements have taken place, and more are planned. For the first time the high school girls have had a physical education teacher of their own and a course meeting state requirements. The proposed building program all depends upon the vote of the people. If the vote for building goes through, a whole new building is planned for Apple River; for Nora a new gym-auditorium and some alterations in the old building, including a kitchen are planned; and a new gym-auditorium, two science rooms,a modern home eco- nomics room, music rooms and alterations in the old Warren building are in the blue prints. The school has applied for admittance to the North Central Association, an ac- crediting agency that will put our school on a higher basis of recognition than it has held before. 5
