Outline Livonia
School Program
r An ambitious postwar ,education
s program has been launched .by the
newly consolidated Livonia Town-
ship School Board.
The program includes long-
range plans for a new high school
a for which a tentative site already
has been obtained, said Harry O.
,Johnson, superintendent.
The board acquired 20 acres of
land from the State Land Office
n shortly after the consolidation
last spring of the various Livonia
a school districts.
An additional 12 acres have
u since been acquired from the
land office, bringing the total
area now held by the board to
approximately 32 acres.
The original site is on Five Mile
road betwen Cranston and Ber-
wick avenues and south to Jami-
son avenue. The additional 12
acres are between Cranston and
Hubbard road.
Although this site in the Li-
vonia Park subdivision, according
to Johnson, "couldn't be more
ideal," being within three-eighths
of a mile .of the township's popu-
lation center,, he wishes to stress
the fact that it hasn't been defi-
nitely decided upon as the final
site by the Board of Education.
The tentative plans call for the
most modern of high schools with
a complete layout, including .an
athletic field, swimming pool, rec-
reational center, :health center,
and adult education facilities.
Eberle Smith Associates,
architect, has been engaged to
draw up plans for a school
with a capacity of 1,000 pu-
pils, but this also will be flexi-
ble since it is estimated that a
school with a 2,000 pupil ca-
pacity will be needed by 1960.
The State Planning Commission
has approved and is aiding in fi-
nancing the drawing of initial
plans.
The size of the site also is just
about ideal for a high school of
the type planned. National au-
thorities recommend 30 to 40 acres
as ideal for a school of the size
contemplated.
At present, Livonia sends 470
pupils to neighboring communi-
ties to high school on a tuition
basis. Of these, 300 attend Plym-
outh High Schol.
The Livonia board pays"the
legal tuition rate charged, up
to a maximum of $20 a year
per pupil. Any cost over that
amount must be borne by the
parents. -
The board also :has assumed the
cost of transportation of the pupils
to the various high schols", John-
son said.
The board, which operates five
eleme tary and two junior :high
school is one of the major con-
solidation projects in the state,
and is being watched with inter-
est from all sections.

DO YOU KNOW!
There is one sure way to know]
whether or not Vou have enough
Life Insurance to do the job you
would like it to do. It is this—
Jot down a figure that represents'.
the minimum monthly income'.
your family would require if you,
should die suddenly.
Then compare that figure your
family would receive from your
present Life Insurance.
Your Ordinary Life policies show
different ways' called "Options"
for obtaining monthly income
from the proceeds of policies you
now own.
You may be somewhat shocked to
find that your life Insurance um-
brella is not nearly as big as you
thought it was.
