65 



rooms for the elementary grades, the domestic, natural, and 

 physical science laboratories, and the principal's office, while 

 in the basement are the lunch and manual training rooms, and

 curriculum is in full operation agriculture will be offered part 

 or all of each of the four years, a total of six semesters' work
