School Improvements Outline for Erie District Relief Plan

The board of education debated possible relief projects for the Corry School District under a statewide unemployment relief program. Blaine Kincaid was elected school district solicitor at eight hundred dollars yearly, and the panel looked to approve further positions and project-financing plans. Discussions focused on which improvements to pursue and how to fund them, with estimates showing district needs around nine to eleven thousand dollars for project work and roughly thirty three thousand for labor returns. Potential sites included culinary, home economics, senior and junior high facilities, athletic fields, and repairs to roofs, heating, and fixtures. No firm construction decisions were made as financing barriers remained a key obstacle. The board briefly considered a Third Ward building but no action taken.
