North Mason Teacher To
Retire After 16 Years
By EMILY MEYER
• The North Mason School Di-
rectors accepted the resignation
of Mrs. Beatrice Pruski at their
meeting last Monday evening.
Mrs. Pruski has been a first
grade teacher in the North Ma-
son district for the past 16 years.
She is retiring to an adventure
of traveling and sightseeing
around the world. In her letter of
resignation she said she plans
next year at this time to be in
the South Seas.
The board also accepted the
resignation of Miss Carolyn Ro-
berts, Junior High Language Arts
teacher, and granted a years
leave of absence to Mrs. Kathryn
Nuszbaum to attend college next
year.
The school directors are con-
sidering types of heating for the
new elementary building and
listened to a presentation from
Howard Stack, Cascade Natural
Gas Co. on a new type of cir-
culating hot water heating Syso
tern. Stack said Cascade would
have lines in Belfair this coming
samraer and natural gas will be
available to residents at that
time.
Ross Oison, Mason County PUD
presented to the board var-
ious possibilities of electric heat-
ing systems. Also mentioned was
that underground wiring is al-
ready in planning stages for var-
ious projects of the school by
the PUD, but the estimates are
not available as yet.
There seems to be a little con-
fusion among school board mem-
bers as to whether the new ele-
mentary building will be design-
ed for K-2 grades or 3-4 grades.
Director Jerry Reid asked that
the teachers and directors ser-
iously consider a sch:ol design-
ed for the newer concepts of
teaching such as team teaching.
It was felt by some members
of the board, if the district is de-
signing a new building it should
be planned now for updated
methods of teaching. Team teach-
ing is usually started in grades
3 and 4. Other members of the
board felt more of a need for a
K-2 building. This would mean
the rooms would have solid non-
moveable walls as opposed to
sliding walls, which could be
pushed baek for team teaching.
Teachers and board members are
planning visits to school of both
tylms before a decision can be
reached.
Robert Bezzo, architect, was
awarded a contract to draw up
plans for the gymnasium addi-
tions and the remodeling of the
existing furnace building and the
cah.,teria to accomodate the free-
ezer-c(oler system. The contract
was for an hourly basis which
was felt to be economical for
this type of procedure as com-
pared to the usual percentage
basis. This will include super-
vision of the building construc-
tion. The schex)l directors plan
to have these projects completed
by the beginning of school next
fall.
Supt. Norman Sanders stated
he had been in contact with three
different companies which make
steel buildings of the type need-
ed for the new bus garage and
would have something more de-
finite to report on these build-
ings at next months meeting.
Sanders also said that after
taking a survey of the teachers
and other school personnel, he
felt the best time to make up
days lost by the "snow vacation"
wouht be June 9-10-11. He said
it was felt a Spring Vacation
was needed at this time and
the board agreed.
Sanders also told the board
that the district would need sev-
eral new teachers next year, a
half-time kindergarten teacher,
one each for first and second
grade, plus an additional second
grade teacher, and one additioaal
third grade teacher, one replace-
ment Junior High teacher plus
an additional teacher and one
ttigh School teacher.
Seceders at this time recom-
mended the board rehire for an-
other year the High School and
Elemenfary Principals. This was
approved Also a more liberal
administrative leave policy for
teachers was adopted. This would
enable some types of emergency
leave, such as attending to fro-
zen water pipes, appearing in
court, etc., to be {,,ranted by
the Superintendant.

This is just one of many in
a series of the modernizing act-
ivities at McCleary. To follow
shortly is the addition of a new
five-sort grade line unit. After
a "shakedown" period, the big
sander will be replacing other
less efficient units. The new
grade line will automatically
feed, turn, select and sand sheets
to five sorting bins equipped with
automatic stackers.
Alex Smith Jr., Shelton, is pro-
ject engineer for the McCleary
Plywaod improvements. Produc-
tion startup time of the sander
and grade line is scheduled for
early April.
