Enjoying a bit of outside freedom, students relax and take advantage of the warm weather during a study hall in spring. school builds new addition As the United States continued to expand its vast domain by exploration and advancement so did the school district as it erected an addition to the high school. The new wing had 17 classrooms, a cafeteria, two lecture rooms, a faculty planning room, a new faculty room, and a planetarium. The planetarium seated 75 in reclining chairs and its dome shaped ceiling produced the effect of gazing at the sky. It offers fantastic opportunities for coordinating academic disciplines in the school, commented Dale Ott, director of the planetarium. Cafeteria B in the new wing added faster service with shorter lines. Teachers who had free periods were able to use the teachers' planning room to organize weekly assignments. A conference room was located opposite the math wing. The convenience of air-conditioning also helped during warm weeks. As the marking period draws to a close, it is time for teachers to start averaging final grades for the quarter. Math teacher Carl Case takes advantage of a free period to work in the planning room as secretary Mrs. Meta Wotringtakes attendance. education 20
