Abstract

The Toppenish Junior-Senior High School has shown more than a 40 per cent increase in enrollment during the last six years, making necessary extensive alterations and additions to the main plant. Recently the school population reached a point where a minimum of two additional classrooms was necessary. A survey of school activities revealed a pressing need for space for five purposes. These included quarters for related art instruction in the vocational home economics department; a cafeteria to serve a maximum of 208 pupils; recreational space for group and class parties; a place for pupil-parent and for faculty meetings, and facilities for vocational training in quantity food preparation and service. This large order was complicated by limited funds, since only about $20,000 was available.
