as insulating ceilings. He stated that he felt the situation was better than when he was first at North Wood. Cost of replacing the rooftop heating units, he said, was estimated at $6 per square foot for 180,000 square feet, or a total cost of $1,060,000. One possibility under consideration is installation of double doors at the north

and south entrances. Lelle explained that the design of the building creates a wind tunnel effect and double doors could improve the situation. He commented that installation ot double doors at Harrison Elementary school has made an “amazing” difference in heating there.

Upon the recommendation of Supt. Dorsey, the board authorized taking daily temperature readings in each room of the building for the next two weeks and obtaining views of teachers on the heating situation. A report will be made at the next meeting February 26

Architects to begin drawings

An agreement with the Everett I. Brown Company for architectural services was approved by the Wa-Nee Board of School Trustees Monday. The agreement will allow architects to begin preliminary drawings for the proposed facility expansion projects. Those projects received Department of Public Instruction approval on February 1. Kenneth Brown of the architectural firm told the board that cost estimates will be presented for consideration within 30 to 45 days. Bidding could begin in from three to four months, he said, with completion of the swimming pool expected by early 1981 Brown explained that the pool involves more work than would a classroom project. Work on the pool, he said, would take about 14 months with work beginning in the spring of 1980. He urged the board to act early in obtaining materials to avoid later price hikes. The only problem Brown cited was with the water table on the proposed pool site south of the Panther Pit. Tests will be needed to determine what will have to be done, he said. L Brown proposed a single oil-fired boiler to heat both the pool and the adjoining activity building. A heat pipe would be run underground to the activity building, expected to be located between the baseball diamond and the tennis courts. Responding to a question on the possibility of using solar heating. Brown stated it was not feasible because Indiana does not have enough days of sunshine. In announcing state approval of the proposed projects, Supt. William Dorsey added that approval is also expected from the State Board of Health. In other action, the board approved the proposed 1979-80 school calendar. Students would report for classes August 28 with the final day of classes to be May 30. The only major change was eliminating one day from the midwinter break. Next year, students will have only February 18 off. Supt. Dorsey said the action is a trend to make up for snow days. In addition to Labor Day and Memorial Day, students would be off October 25 and 26, November 22 and 23, December 24 to January 6, and April 413. Grading periods would end November 2, January 18, and Marijjh 21.
