ALL-PURPOSE ROOM: Stone School's new $113,000 addition will be dedicated in connection with the school's annual Christmas program at 8:15 p.m. Friday. The addition includes an all-purpose room shown above, equipped with a stage for auditorium purposes and a gymnasium floor for physical education. Also in the addition are four classrooms, a teachers lounge and storage and boiler facilities. Rapid growth in the area made necessary the expansion of the seven-classroom building erected in 1949.

OLD STONE SCHOOL: Neighbors in the Stone School district in Pittsfield township brought stone by horse and wagon to construct this Stone School in 1911. The one-room school building is now used for dinners and meetings and also as the site of a nursery school. The school district has grown rapidly and a new Stone School has been built across the street from this structure. The first school built in Washtenaw county was built in the township.

Already in use is this new one-story Stone School at Packard and Stone School Rds. in Pittsfield township. The exterior of the cinder-block building is shown at top and the kindergarten classroom is pictured at bottom. Designed by Walter T. Anicka, Ann Arbor architect, the building cost $90,000, financed by a bond issue approved last March by voters of Stone School District No. 7-fractional. A feature of the modern kindergarten room is that all furnishings are scaled to the size of the little pupils who use them. The door at right leads to the kindergarten washroom where all bath equipment is built in miniature. The new school is on the land where previous Stone schools have stood for the past 125 years.
