Alpine School District Backs Bond Election for New Elementary Schools
Alpine School District trustees vote to call a bond election March 1 to raise 1,450,000 dollars for an elementary school building program. Superintendent David R. Mitchell says the plan adds new schools where needed, without replacing current ones. The district, valued at about 36.64 million, expects enrollments to reach 7,000 by 1953 and notes debt service would start at four mills, tapering as bonds are paid.
