capacity in existing buildings.
As our city is rapidly growing and
mure children are pouring in daily,
we think it advisable to recoinmend
that the building known as the Nci
son Grammar School be raised one
story if practicable, which will cost
about -21,200, aud seat 150 more
scholars; also that an addition of two
rooms, to cost about 2700, and seat
100 more pupils, be placed on tbo
Academy building. This outlay will
enable the Superintendent to accora
modatc about 650 white pupils. We
would also suggest that us soon ub
practicable a lot be purchased some
where in the southeastern portion of
the city, wherever considered advan
tageous by toe Board of Education,
anti a bouse of seating capacity of 200
pupils be erected thereon. The col
ored school building is aufficicnUy
large to accommodate all present ap
plications.*^ Desks are required at
