The
Dalton School Two Way Radio A Novelty
Dalton School installed a two way radio system last year linking the office with buses and vehicles. It proved valuable in stormy weather as parents seek arrival times and during mechanical problems. Superintendent Glenn Bosley notes one imperfection the system shares a wavelength with a local veterinary firm. The quiet office sometimes blares an emergency about a sick horse or cow. Bosley and secretary Dean Hiner have felt concern for animals and await treatment outcomes. They may file a complaint but for now enjoy the novelty.
