TYPICAL CLASSROOM: Typical of the new classrooms is the one above, where James Scheu teaches a seventh grade class mathematics. Materials used are similar to other new classrooms in the city, with acoustic tile ceiling, asphalt tile floor and cinderblock walls painted in soft colors. Also typical is use of glass brick in upper part of window and green chalk boards to cut glare. Not visible are natural wood-finished cabinets on inside walls.

LOTS OF ROOM FOR MUSIC: The spacious new music department includes two large rooms for band and orchestra and several individual practice rooms. Donald J. Shetler (right foreground) directs the band while the orchestra practices in room beyond open door at right. Between the two large rooms are glass-walled offices (center) and a uniform room (left background). The new additions were opened room by room and unit by unit during the first semester to help relieve crowding of the 790 pupils enrolled in the school, one of Ann Arbor's two junior high buildings.
