59 - Release Details On Port Building (4-8-59)

PORT WASHINGTON - Details on the proposed addition to the Port Washington School, approved by the State Board of Education in January, were released today. The building program, which will also include an addition of a multi-purpose room and kitchen to the Washigton Township School, will be financed by a $286,000 bond issued which voters will be asked to aprove at the May primary. The bond issue will require a tax levy of approximately 4.5 mills.

The ground floor will contain a cafeteria, kitchen, cooler, dry storage room and rest room. The cafeteria also will be used for recreation, music and other activities. A complete music department will be constructed at the side with two small practice rooms, a storage room for instruments and uniforms and an office. An industrial arts department with an auto and farm shop, vocational arts shop, industrial arts shop, instructor's room, finish room, project storage room and mechanical drawing room also will be included.
