Gilmore advocated that one of the three principals be appointed in a supervisory capacity to standardize methods of education, extra curricular activities and supplies in the three schools. At the request of the chairman this matter was held over until the next meeting for further study. A communication from the inspector J. K. Evans drew attention to the fact that the new survey now being developed by J. Cooke would greatly increase the potential enrollment in Aldershot schools and urged that a plan be formulated to take care of this increase. Members agreed that the best solution would be an addition to Glenview and it was not necessary to secure more school land at the present time.
