Dear Citizens: The McHenry elementary school system is asking the voters to approve construction of a new Junior High School. The need is both real and urgent. This bond issue is necessary for our total education climate and to provide adequate room for pupils to learn and teachers to teach. The need for additional classroom space in District 15 has reached a critical stage. In the past 10 years, enrollment in the elementary schools has almost doubled and in 1968 will total about 3,000 students. The Shared Time Program was expanded to include 7th and 8th grades from St. Patrick's and St. Mary's. The Junior High School will be overcrowded and Operation Shoe Horn has been installed to pry every student into the classrooms. The School Board, after much study and discussion with the aid of the Citizen's Advisory Committee, decided to schedule a $1,875,000 bond issue for a new Junior High. The new Junior High will be constructed on the Glosson property north of Rt. 120, east of Ringwood Road, west of McHenry. Soil borings were performed and the site was found acceptable. Many pupils will walk to this building making it a community center and reducing transportation costs. If you own a home with a market value of $20,000, the school will cost you $1.50 per month. NEEDS OF DISTRICT 15 Enrollment in the elementary schools has almost doubled since 1957 and last year totaled 2,599 students and one projection indicates another doubling of school population by 1978-79. This year an additional 350 students have been registered while 400 are expected, forcing the enrollment close to the 3,000 mark. At the present time, only 104 classrooms are available to handle the elementary population with an ideal average of 25 students per room, however rooms are now attempting to house 40- 45 students. You are invited to visit your schools and see how difficult it is to cram 40 desks, minus children, into one classroom. This year offices are being converted into classrooms and Special Education classes are being held in the teachers' lounge in an effort to find more room for the students. The Shared Time Program was expanded to include 7th and 8th grades from St. Patrick's and St. Mary's and we expect approximately 230 parochial students in the Junior High. Operation Shoe Horn is starting and will bring 150 additional students into the Junior High building. This program is an effort to avoid an extended school day and split shifts. This means that over 750 students will be attending Junior High School this year. PAST PROPOSALS T© CORRECT CLASSROOM SHORTAGE Several proposals were considered to correct District 15 classroom shortage such as adding rooms to the Junior High and Hilltop; building a starter K-4 and a Junior High. These were rejected in favor of a new Junior High School for a very simple reason -- you get more school for your tax dollar. You also get a more desired educational climate and more functional and flexible uses of the building. YOUR OCT. 5 BOND ISSUE WHAT IS IT? A new Junior High School to accommodate 900 students. COST. $1,875,000.00 COST PER ONE STUDENT: $2,083 This one building is the BEST plan when costs of construction and transportation, pupil space needs, bonding power, and educational climate for teaching is considered. WHY DIDNT THE SCHOOL BOARD BUILD-- 1. An addition to the Junior High, $720,000.00, for 200 students and an addition to Hilltop, $290,000.00, for 175 students for a total cost of $1,010,000.00. COST PER ONE STUDENT: $2,693 This was rejected because of the small number of students which could be added at Hilltop. This proposal would have cost 22.34 percent more per student than the Oct. 5 bond issue. 2. An addition to the Junior High, $720,000.00, for 200 students; a starter K-4, $435,000.00 for 250 students; a starter Junior High, $1,- 000,000.00, for 300 students for a total cost of $2,155,000.00. COST PER ONE STUDENT: $2,873 This was rejected because more classrooms would be provided by one building for less cost. The $2,155,OOO.OO. WQJ|ld also have required "phase" bonding which again would complicate the issue for public understanding. This plan would have cost 27.30 percent more per student than a new Junior High School. 3. An addition to the Junior High, $720,000.00 for 200 students, and a starter K-4, $435,- 000.00, for 250 students for a total of $1,155,- 000.00. COST PER ONE STUDENT: $2,567 This proposal was rejected in favor of a new Junior High School based on the fact that the new school would provide room for 450 more students for slightly more money and getting maximum use of bonding power. This proposal would have cost 18.86 percent more per student than a new Junior High School. ... The alternatives were rejected by the School Board after much discussion and study with the aid of the Citizen's Advisory Committee and it was decided to schedule the $1,875,000 bond issue basing their judgment on the fact that the new school would provide more classrooms for the least cost per student. Before the additions would have been completed and ready for occupancy, another addition would have been required. It was felt that the district should look far enough ahead to know the needs for classrooms. WHAT WmL HIE JIMBDE MCM COST YOU? If you own a home with a market value of $20,000 it would only cost $18 per year, 90 cents average per $1,000 market value or $1.50 per month to provide these necessary school facilities for 900 District #15 students. WHAT WELL THE NEW JUMOE ww PEOVIDE? Passage of the Oct. 5 bond issue for $1,875,000 will provide 36 classrooms including a girls' and boys' gymnasium, plus a library and cafeteria. This total expenditure also includes land purchase,, building and equipment, and will be capable of housing 900 students. Passage of the bond issue will ^eliminate the necessity of renting other buildings in the area for school use. When the bond issue passes Oct. 5, it will guarantee that Kindergarten classes will continue to be held. State legislation requires Kindergarten classes be provided by 1970. Passage of the bond issue will also eliminate using Special Education rooms for regular classrooms. The Oct. 5 bond issue excludes "phase" construction. T^e cost of this ad is paid by interested citizens and members of the Board of Education, and is not paid from public funds. We feel that as your representatives we owe you this explanation and we ask earnestly for your support. Without it we cannot achieve our purpose and goals. EB3 1
