For Bonding Schools District 17-H to
Eliminate Classroom Shortages
and Hazards
1. THE SCHOOL POPULATION is on the increase—3l.2%
increase in the last eight years.
2. THERE ARE AT PRESENT 5 makeshift basement rooms
and 11 unsafe classrooms housing over 400 pupils
from grade 3 through grade 12.
3. A REPORT IN 1953 BY CUSHING & TERREL architects
and engineers, on the condition of one building (1910
Grade School):
"The present building shows numerous structural
cracks, mostly in brickwalls, but some in the
concrete foundation . . . numerous cracks seem
to be fairly recent. One wall definitely appears
to be pulling away from the rest of the building
. . . Stairways are adequate in number but a
two-story and basement structure built with
wood floors, joists and partitions is a definite
fire hazard, particularly when the stairways are
not fire proof. Any non fire resistant building is
a potential fire hazgrd . . . The building, being
over 40 years old, is not in conformity with cur
rent practice for educational structures ... it is
our necomendation that this structure be razed."
