WADSWORTH STREET SCHOOL.
THE edifice now occupied, on Wadsworth Street, which would accommodate six hundred children,- room enough, it was thonght, for the prospective wants of the district -- was completed in 1851, and contained fire departments with recitation rooms for each.
The registered number in the Wadsworth Street School and its branches, in Jannary, 1871, is as follows :
Wadsworth Street School, 1,380
Charter Oak, " 66
295
Baker Road, ت
111
Wethersfield Avenue, 65
Making in all, 1,851
In the history of this district, 1851 and 1871 were two memorable years. In 1851 the Wadsworth Street School House was built. In the estimation of many it was far too large. To-day, after repeated additions and alterations which have cost the district more than three times its first cost, it is nearly filled to its utmost capacity. The cut represents the Wadsworth Street School building as it now is, with its first, second and third story plans. It accommodates nearly three times the number of pupils it did in 1851.
The new CHARTER OAK SCHOOL HOUSE .- (South District,) in Colt's Meadow, was formally dedicated with appropriate exercises, on the 6th of September, 1871, and is all that can be desired for a first class school building. Its size is ninety-four by fifty-six feet, four stories high, with a French roof. The basement, which is eleven and a half feet high, contains play-rooms, thirty-two by twenty-six feet, and fourteen and a half feet high. The third floor is like the second, but the rooms are sixteen feet high. The fourth floor has two school rooms of the same size of those below, and a hall fifty-five by fifty-two feet. The school rooms and the hall are six- teen feet high. Each room has a separate clothes room, with water, and everything for the comfort and conve- nience of the school. The cost of the building, includ- ing heating apparatus, fences and side-walks, was $47,- 396.77. The lot, which is inclosed by an iron fence, and surrounded with a flag-stone sidewalk, cost $2,500. Total cost of the whole, is a little less than $50,000. For engravings see pages 278 and 279.
