School Has 90000 Available But Cannot Build Addition
The Aurelia Consolidated School has 90000 available for a new gymnasium, auditorium, and workshop but current prices make construction unaffordable. In 1947 voters approved an addition to handle enrollment growth, with architect estimates at about 90000, the maximum school bond levy. Now costs are projected at 135000 to 140000, leaving the project unfeasible while funds remain on hand.
