To the chatemen of the Board of Education of Tredell County; I wish to make the followi report on th of a site for the proposed school dui ding for the methine consolidation. On the morning of January 5th, in company with Mr. W. C. Wooten and Mr. D. L. Morrow, I met the répresen- tatives of the Gilbert school, Thomas school and Bethlehem School. The Kestler school had been notified but no representative wes present. The old location of the school for this district wes at Kyles X Road. This was located by Dr. Geo. Howara in his survey of the county in 1924, At thie time it was thought that the hard surfaced highway for # 10 would pass through Kyles X Road. It was proposed to include in this school a ie of the territory which has since gone into the Troutman school. ’ I found the following facts; A location can be secured at Bethlehem of 8 or 10 acres, on a very high, well-drained piece of land. There is an advantage in having a power-line already at hand. The Bethlehem school is at present the largest school in this territory and the location of the building at this point will eliminate the trucking of a large number of children, The site at Bethlehem is practically the geographical center of the district and is approximately the center of school population. Good roads radiate in four directions from this center and in my opinion, four trucks will be @ll that is necessary to handle the school children for some time. At present the school at Leonard has voted not to come into this consolidation. This would therefore male the move from Kyles X Road to Bethlehem even more necessary but should this school come in later, the location at Bethaehem will be as accessible to them as though it were located at Kyles X Road. In view of the above facts, my recommendations are that @ site of 8 or 10 acres of ground be secured on the west side of the road leading from Bethaéhem to Kyles X.Road. As I pointed out to the committeemen the old school building could be moved to this site and converted into a teacherage; the present school grounds could be turned in as past payment on the new property and that a new and completely equipped school building of 9 or 10 rooms be constructed on this new site. a | le Assigtant 2 WAR — Planning j { gard met in rerular session.
