GHS Campus To Be Site
Of Three New Buildings
Greensboro Senior High School’s campus is to be the site of three
highly modernized buildings, all of -which will be ready for occu
pancy by January, 1957, if all goes as planned.
Two of the buildings. Home Economics and Music, will be occu
pied by the students of Senior High School, while the third, a jun
ior high school, is for students who live in areas adjacent to this
campus. All three f the buildings being built have the distinction
of being among the most up-to-date school buildings in the south.
The Home Economics Building,
to be located between the Science
and the Main Buildings, is a two
storied structure with such features
as a patio, balcony, fireplace and
outdoor grill. The building is to
have six rooms, three in the first
floor and three on the second.
Pour kitchens with the most mod
em equipment available will be
one of the more prominent at
tractions of the building. Another
feature will be the family life
room which will have a fire place
opening onto the balcony and
folding doors so that the room can
be extended the width of the
building.
One of the more cultural aspects
of this building will be a kinder
garten for children of pre-school
age who live near Senior High.
This room will have a play, work,
dining, and sleeping area. It will
also have an observation booth
where home ec. girls can observe
the children without being seen
by them. Completing the building
are work labs, a service center
and a living room-dining room
combination.
Also consisting of two floors,
the Music Building -will be situ
ated just north of the Main Build
ing. This building will be quite
large as it will contain three
large rooms; one for the band,
choir, and five teaching studios
and seventeen practice rooms. In
addition there are boys’ and girls’
locker roms, offices for each in
dividual group and a repair shop.
The repair shop will be occupied
by Oliver Jeffus who will keep
the instruments in good condition.
Attractive features of this build
ing are sound proof rooms, glass
block windows and special, heat
ing system.
The third building, one that is
greatly needed in Greensboro, is
located at the far northwest of
Senior High’s campus. It is more
modernistic than the other two
buildings. Part of the bidding is
built on a one floor plan, part on
a two, and still another part with
three floors. This building -will
consist of two academic wings,-
a library-cafeteria wing, and an
administrative wing. It will also
house a large music department,
vocational, shop department and
auditorium-gymnasium wing. The
building was designed in a con-
tempory fashion and at its com
pletion will accomdate 1,000 stu
dents. It is hoped, however, that
later additional wings will be add
ed and more space made available.
This is the only junior high school
of its kind in Greensboro and one
of the newer and more modem
schools of the state.
Below is an aerial view of GHS’S campus showing the location
of the three additional buildings. The building on the left be
tween the Science and Main Buildings is for home economics and
family life students. It is hoped that this two-storied structure
will be ready for occupancy by the first semester of next year. On
the right between the Main and Vocational Buildings is the Mus
ic Building. This building will have three large rooms.—One each
for the band, the orchestra an d the choir. One of its more at
tractive features is sound proof rooms.
The new junior high school, which was recently named Kiser
Juniw High, is to be located at the upper right comer of the pic
ture. Work has not yet begun on this building and as a result it'
will not be ready for occupancy un-til January of 1957. It is a very
