( THF, imUNSWICK BKAfON, Thursday. October 8, 1987—PaRe 3-A BY SUSAN USHER Lincoln Primary School students displaced by construction work at the Inland school will move into their new classrooms this week. Bill Turner, assistant to the superintendent, told Brunswick County Board of Education members Monday night that furniture was be ing moved into the school’s .six new classrooms and new special educa tion building, and that the chUdren were expected to move Wednesday or today (Thursday). ..... a^ ■J&.j/iv tUUIMIU>« Classrooms Ready This Week For Lincoln Primary Pupils 1. . , At Union Primary School in Shallotte, board members and .staff were to inspect con.struction to .see how .soon students can move into completed classrooms there. That could come in approximately two weeks, if “punch list” repairs are completed rapidly, Turner indicated. He said work on the project has speeded up following a change of per sonnel en^ng the need for an exten sion of the contract. Demolition was to begin next week of two older concrete block buildings at Lincoln, including the old cafeteria. However, after consulting with attorneys James Prevatte and Glen Peterson, the board agreed Monday to save one building for storage use. At a price of $12,590—similar to the cost of tearing the building dowTi—the contractor will face the exterior in brickwork to match the new construction. Board members also agreed to spend re maining funds for landscaping and blinds for both schools. While work continues on these two .schools, the board moved forward on its next phase of construction. Members authorized the superintendent to sign a contract with Boney Architects Inc. of Wilm ington to begin developing plans for construction of a 12-classroom addi tion to South Brunswick High School at an estimated cost of $900,000, and also for work through the stage of construction documents for a new elementary school proposed for the Supply area. It would serve an estimated 500 students. Ixcal money is on hand for con struction of the addition at .South and for land acquistion and planning of the elementary school, said Turner. Turner .said he and other school of ficials will be meeting with the N.C. Division of School Planning to begin the planning of the new school. Other Business In other business the board: •Heard from John Kaufliold. in terim superintendent, that response has t>een good to his request for materials on AIDS education. Along with .sample policies from three .school sy.stems and the state, he has receivel video cassettes and film strips. The next step is appointment of a committee to help formulate a policy. “This is happening much faster than I expected,” he added. •Voted to write off as uricollectible approximately $.3,000 Child Nutrition Department “bookkeeping discrepancies” from 1985-86 and 1986-87 and to establish a policy under which principals are responsi ble for covering from each school’s budget the cost of meals eaten on credit that have not been paid off by the end of the term. The money writ ten off includes funds not collected from children who ate on credit, $.37 not recovered after a theft and funds from the American Red Cross for food and supplies consumed during Hurricane Diana, but not applied to the correct funds upon receipt.
