"hardware" often requires• addi-
tional training for the teachers,
but most feel its well Worth It.
A valuable part of the school
is'.a well stocked library with
wall to wall carpeting to mini-
mize noise: A separate reference
room is provided.
One obvious difference in the
school is the arrangement of the
desks. In most rooms the desks
are grouped in clusters rather
than in rows. -
Emphasis is put on• the role
of athletics in the' school and a
large gymnasium is provided.
The general reaction of . the
adults as they' wandered from
room to room seemed to -be
"Why didn't I have a school
like this to go to?" And the.
children of course were all
proud as they .displayed their
new facilities.
