The West Hempfield Twp. School
Board met at the Norwood School
and discussed plans for the erection,
of the new school building for
which a $160,000 bond
approved 360 to 254 at last Tues-
day's election. | |
At the same time the directors
announced a special session to be
held Nov. 20 when the architects
who were employed at a previous
session, are to submit their draw-
ings to the board.
It is hoped that at the
session final preparations can be
made to begin advertising for bids
in order to break ground for the
new building in January. Provided
the materials can be secured, the
board hopes to have the building
completed by the beginning of the
1952-53 school term.
Discussed that evening was a pos-
sible site for the building, which is
to be for students of grades one to
