School Board advocates
new vocational school
With the completion of two elementary schools,
Riverside and Greater Plains, the Board of Education
has supervised the construction of four new schools
in the last ten years, an addition to another, and con–
tinuing renovations at the Junior High School.
Emphasis has shifted from building to studies of
the total school program. Mr. White and the Board
of Education receive and consider evaluations and
reports of changes in the local curriculum.
Participating with the Board of Cooperative Edu–
cational Services for Otsego County's proposed voca–
tional school, the Board of Education, by supplying
financial assistatJCe, anticipates that any student who
will profit from the school wi ll be able to attend.
The new vocational school will begin next Sep–
tember using temporary facilities in the Chestnut
Sb·eet School and other buildings in Oneonta.
