List year plans and specifications
and an estimate of the odet ware
mads for remodeling and enlarging
Graham Graded School building.
Since that time $50,000 in bonds
have bean voted to provide the neoee
saryfunds for the work snd to build,
a suitable building for taking care
of the colored children. Lately the
School Truateea have been endeavor
ing to get eatimatea on the proposed
improvements and to have a time
named when the work would be com
pleted. What they have been able
to get is not altogether encouraging.
They can get an jatimsle for the
construction but no assurance as to
the time when the work wonld be
oompleted and ready for use. At thia
time the estimated ooet is almost
twice ss much as when tbe plana and
estimates were first furnished tbe
Board. This condition has created
a doubt in the mind of the Board ae
to this jrisdom f proceeding at this
time. If the present building should
be partially torn down and improve
ments not completed in time for the
opening of the fall term, it might
mean that there would be little or no
school next year.
The Board is deeirousof the school
going on without interruption, but
feels that the preeent building in ite
present shape ie insufficient for the'
neede of the children entitled to at
tend. No final decision has yet been
reached, but whether the remodeling
is undertaken now or not, some pro
vision will have to be made for the
increasing attendance.
