TO MOVE --
OR NOT TO MOVE
PRO & CON
Continued
Some of the disadvan-
tages to moving the Jr. High
school would be the loss of
the use of the Jr. High gym
and crowded conditions
lat would then develop at
Meadows Valley High
building. There also
might be some need to cut
down on community activi-
ties such as the town team
basketball and volleyball.
It was brought out during
recent inspections though
that the gym at the Mea-
dows Valley High School
has twice the square footage
as the Jr. High School and
In conclusion it is our
feeling that from a cur-
riculum and student edu--
cational standpoint that it
would be highly advanta-
geous to move the Jr. High
school to the Meadows
Valley High School com-
plex. But we also feel that
such a move is not practical
from a long term basis due
to the requirements for
actual building space.
There is a definite possibil-
ity that the overcrowding.
would distract from the
overall learning processes
taking place in the high
school complex and with-
out some alternate plan for
developing additional space
for the high school we can-
not recommend such a
move as a permanent move.
We can recommend such a
move as a temporary lasting

Six men in New Meadows

Friday evening and Satur-
day. The course taught by
Bill Perry of the Boise City
Fire Department was
attended by: Boyd Moore,
Dorsey Warr, Larry Dennis,
Larry Peterson, Bill Free-
man, and Bob Roberts.
Several areas in the city
were used as practice sites.
Mr. & Mrs. Lyle Maxwell
and Mr. & Mrs. Virgil

their daughter, Deenie

Mary Lawrence and Helen
Chenowth from Congressman
High school. The biggest
problem that we forsee in
the movement of the Jr.
High school would be the
problem of adequate teach-
ing space. Currently we
have available at the
Meadows Valley High
School the audio-visual
room, the Kindergarten
room last year, the teacher's
lounge, the pop room off
the commons area, the stor-
age room next to the stage
and the music office storage
next to the stage. It is
apparent that if we were to
use tile two rooms on oppo-
site ides of the stage that
the Kindergarten students
would not be able to util-
ize those due to the lack of
lavatory facilities. If older
students were to be placed
school complex. To meet Symm's Boise office were in
that end we offer the Council last Saturday. They
attached decision program were asking area citizens
that would need to be what local problems they
developed in order to would like to have Steve
implement additional build-
ing space for the Jr. High
school. It should be noted
that the actual movement
of the Jr. High to the High
School area would not take
place until November. This
then would be contingent
upon development of nec-
essary revenues to support
such a building program.
We would then recommend
that the citizen's committee
be formed to work with the
administration of the Mea-
dows Valley School District
to developing the necessary
revenues and building pro-
grams. If the necessary
help them with.
If you missed them and
would like to relay a message
concerning problems in this
area to Congressman Symms
write: Congressman Steve
Symms, in care of Helen
Chenoweth, P.O. Box 1190,
Boise, Idaho 83701 or tele-
phone 384-1776.
In the heat of the sum-
mer it is hard to realize that

moving the current teachers

indeed were the plan devel-
oped then there is still a
question of the Kinder-
garten program. It is defi-
nitely my opinion that the
Kindergarten program
should not be dropped due
to the movement of the Jr.
High school to the Meadows
Valley High School com-
plex. It does still have a
problem as to the physical
location of the Kinder-
garten should such a move
take place.

feeling that this current
time that the Jr. High
would remain in at the Jr.
High building throughout
the school year. We would
thus like to request for an
authorization to attempt to
implement this building
decision plan as outlined for
temporary movement of the
Jr. High into the existing
classroom space at the
Meadows Valley High
School and for the imple-
mentation of the building
committee to explore
avenues of raising the neces-
sary monies to complete an
actual building program by
the start of school in the
fall of 1978.
