The 1929 Great Falls school district issued 931 127 77 dollars in bonds at 414 percent interest to finance a new high school for 1 600 students with annual interest of about 42 000. Butte plans 560 000 dollars for a 2 400 student plant with annual payments near 43 000 for interest and principal, while Great Falls pays slightly less each year.
