service in that area, Hein said.
The exact location of the new
substation has not yet been

High School
Bond Issue
On Ballot
Voters in the Shelton Se-hooi
District will decide a $3.1 million
bond issue for the construction of
a new high school when they go
to the polls Tuesday.
The bonds would provide
funds for the construction of a
new four-year school on the
40-acre site the district owm off
Spring Road.
Also included in the building
proposal is $240,000 for the
construction of a new building to
replace the present Rogers
School, which is used for the
handicapped program.
Total cost of the two proposal
projects is $4.6 million, with $1.5
million in state matching funds
anticipated for the project if the
bond issue is approved.
The proposed new building
would house students from the
ninth through the twelveth
grades.
The present junior high school
would be phased out and the
seventh and eighth graders housed
in the Angle building which is
now used by the high school with
some rooms used for junior high
and some facilities shared by the
junior and senior high schools.
The Reed Building, which
now houses some high school
classes, would be remodeled into
district and special service office
space and storage.
The central cafeteria would
remain in the Reed Building.
The Shelton School District
would most likely not have to sell
the entire $3.1 million in bonds
since after the bond issue Is
approved by the Shelton District
voters, non-high school districts
which send students to Shelton
would be asked to make
contributions to the new building.
The non-high districts which
Shelton serves have total assessed
valuations larger than Shelton.
This would mean that if the
non-high constrictions were on the
basis of assessed valuation, and all
of the non-high districts
participated, the Shelton District
would only have to sell about half
of the bond issue which is being
asked.
Contributions from the
non-high districts would be
determined by the County
Committee on School District
