x£ £cCucatco i, yu uUtut act acltool. LEFT TO RIGHT: Gregory Rowe, Francis Davis, Robert Wing, Dr. C. G. Ward, Robert Barker, Edward Gerber, Mrs. Margaret Sargent--Recording Secretary, Gordon Baibach. In October of 1957, the people of Community Unit District 205 voted a bond issue valued at $385,000. This was to build (1) a two room addition at Nora, (2) a two room addition at Apple River, (3) an eleven room ele- mentary school at Warren, and (4) a new high school gymnasium. Work began almost immediately on the gym under the supervision of the architect, Raymond Orput of Rockford. Work fell behind because of the harsh cold weather in January. With few interruptions during the summer, the workmen managed to have the new grade rooms completed at the start of school in September 1958. The high school gym was completed a short time later. After all projects had been completed, an open house was held on Decem- ber 7, 1958, from two until four p.m., at the three centers of District 205. Much credit goes to the school board for these much needed facilities. This seven man governing body meets the second Monday night of every month, averaging an additional special meeting each month. The school board consists of the following members: Dr. C. G. Ward--President Robert Barker--Secretary Francis Davis Robert Wing Gordon Baibach Gregory Rowe Edward Gerber We should all realize the unpaid efforts these men have made to secure better schools for our community.

'DetUcatcott £cUt£ For the first time in more than thirty yearn, Miss Groom was not present to welcome us back to school last Sep- tember. We have missed her during her year in England, but her absence has made us more aware of her efforts. Miss Groom has become one of the assets of our school system. Her high standards, endless work, depth of per- ception, constant devotion, understanding of young people, and keen wit have made our English department one of high esteem. She has guided our thoughts, encouraged our efforts, chal- lenged our minds, tested our achievements, and repri- manded our laziness. She has helped and watched us grow intellectually, and she has shown a sincere and individual interest in each and every one of us. To Miss Groom, the Seniors of 1959 dedicate their annual, THE ECHOES.
