facilities fer S*ward SeHol Children
Dear Parent*:
We are attaching a copy of our
letter to the Seward School Board
requesting Immediate application
from the School Board to the City
Council, for a new gymnasium
auditorium and swimming pool, tor
the school children of Seward.
We ask you to also support this
project, and mail a copy of your
resolution or letter to the School
Board in support of this project, to
the City Council, so they will know
[that the civic organizations and
citizens are in favor of their efforts
to secure some Alaska Public Works
funds, for the benefit of the school
children or Seward.
It is our understanding that the
School Board has proposed to the
Council and projected a program
for school improvement, but it is
our understanding that the entire
program is consolidated, which in
cludes a gymnasium and high
school building and further im
provements to the present school
building, along with fences and
sidewalks, but such a program must
be separated in order to secure ap
proval for the reason that Dr. Ryan,
Commissioner of Education, states
we do not need a high school build
ing, then the entire program will
be disapproved unless set up into
different projects that can be ap
proved by Dr. Ryan and the Gover
nor.
We ask your support on this pro
ject, and beg you to submit your
request to the School Board at an
early date.
Sincerely yours,
Seward Chamber of Commerce.
(The attached letter.)
Seward School Board,
Seward. Alaska.
Dear Sirs:
The Seward Chamber of Com
merce has passed a motion to re
quest the School Board to make
application to the City Council for
forwarding to the Alaska Public
Works Agency, for the erection of
a new gymnasium, auditorium and
swimming pool, for use by the
school children of Seward. This]
resolution is in line with the Gov-j
emor's recent statement concern
ing the welfare of the school chil-’
dren throughout the Territory of
Alaska, and one project that will
receive jiis wholehearted approval.
Our resolution is based on the
fact that Dr. Ryan has also stated
that the school facility is sufficient
and adequate for three or four
| years, and therefore any proposed
! addition to the school in the way
of high school building would not
receive approval at this time, but a
new recreational facility would not
come under Mr. Ryan’s approval
or disapproval; therefore, such a
facility could be approved and
placed at the disposal of the school
authorities at an early date.
Our proposal would not in any
way conflict with any future build
ing of a new high school building,
but would place in line for immedi
ate building a necessary addition to
the school facilities, whereas if the
project were incorporated with a
new high school building, certain
disapproval would defeat the entire
project. Our thought in this mat
ter is: secure the facilities that can
be sccuerd under the present Alas
kan Public Works money, and add
i a new high school building to the
j gymnasium when Dr. Ryan will ap
: prove your need for such a build
i ing.
We believe that the City Sales
; Tax of 2 per cent will finance the
1 proposed new gymnasium and au
| ditorium on a 50 per cent basis of'
! cost with the Alaska Public Works
Agency, and therefore see no rea- :
! son why our body should not be in
■ favor of the project, and receive
i your united approval and support.
, Our thought is to get for Seward
what is possible to get, within the
five year operation of the Alaska
Public Works duration, and towards
that end, requests should be made
at once for this gymnasium.
May we ask for your reaction to
our proposal, at air early date.
Sincerely yours,
Seward Chamber of Commerce.
