go with a middle school. Educationally I think that makes sense, but I can’t go along with a middle school now."
“Looking ahead, I am concerned about our output, how our students are prepared to go out into the world," he continued. “It is difficult to reconcile building a middle school with the needs at the high school. With the immediate space needs taken care of, it leaves us some flexibility to do something with the high school. The world is changing rapidly, and we need to apply our resources there."
Wakefield District representative Paul Nichols agreed adding, “If we get it in by September, 1994, we will be able to manage that." He made the motion to move ahead with the elementary school addition immediately and look at the needs of the high school in five years. I)r. Tole seconded the motion and all approved.
Along with the recommendation to build additions, Dr. Gangel had a tentative schedule that calls for a public hearing for response to the plan on Dec. 9 and including architectural fees and a commitment for construction in the next budget. The project could go out for bids next November with an August, 1994, completion date.
In response to a request from the Board of Supervisors Dr. Gangel had also provided a list of additional employees that would be required for the alternative building requirements. He said that between 10 and 14 additional teachers will be required at a current cost of $.'100,000 to $420,000. He noted that these teachers will be required whether a middle school is built, additions to the two schools are built, or additional students are taught in trailers or tents.
He said additional enrollment also will require an additional halftime person for guidance.
