Silver Lake Joint School District 1 is an independent school district which serves Silver Lake, Wisconsin, and a small portion of the Salem, Wisconsin community. Riverview Elementary School is the only educational facility which serves the district. == Riverview Elementary School == Riverview Elementary School was established in the village of Silver Lake, Wisconsin, in 1895. It was built on land donated by William A. Schenning.〔Reflections: 75 Years on the Lake, Jeff Albrecht, 2001〕 Riverview Elementary School has changed a lot from when it was first built. It used to be on the west side of the Soo Line Railroad,〔 but now rests on a nine-acre parcel of land adjacent to the east side of the railway. The original footprint of this school in this new location originally only had four rooms: 1–2, 3–4, 5–6, and 7–8. Kindergarten was added later. The principal also taught grades 7–8. Some children had to go home for lunch because they were near the school, while others who did not stayed in their classrooms and ate lunch. There was no gymnasium, but recess was a good time for physical education. The original Riverview School was built in 1895 and was only one room. The sole teacher’s name is Gertrude L. Bothe. In 1912 the school established a second room. A proposal to build a new school on a new parcel of land was made at a meeting on July 11, 1949. The construction plan, approved on August 8, 1949, was to build a three-room school on a nine-acre area. The plans were again modified to include the addition of two bathrooms, an office, and a fifth grade classroom. Mr. Lawrence was the designer.〔 In 1952, a basement and kitchen were added. Enid Frank was the principal at this time. The staff consisted of only three other people.〔 In 1955, two more classrooms, a storage room, washrooms for the Kindergarten, and an extra door to create a double-door entry were all added. Then, in 1969, Mr. Hellum became the administrator. With this change came the construction of four more classrooms, a teachers’ lounge, a music room, material center, and AV room. Those rooms were the new junior high. In 1974, two rooms and a hall were added for sixth grade classrooms at a cost of $75,000 dollars.〔 In 1976, the school had 433 students and a staff of 29 teachers. In 1976, Mr. Feld became assistant principal. In 1978, four classrooms were added for the fifth grade which cost $275,000. A 1998 addition to the school included the construction of a full-sized gymnasium, stage, music room, band room, art room, library, storage, and an upgraded furnace, at a cost of $3,900,000. In 1998, Dr. Hellum retired and Gary Petersen was hired as administrator.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Silver Lake Joint School District 1」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
