Scope and Content Note

This series contains the records generated by an early attempt to plan for the establishment of central school districts throughout the state.

In 1930 the Department sent copies of relevant United States Geological Survey maps to district superintendents of schools and requested them to indicate the following: boundaries of present central school districts; site of each school building and number of teachers; suggested boundaries for central school districts; schools that should be kept open after centralization for grades K-6; hard surfaced roads suitable for year around use; and suggested annexations of school districts to city or village superintendencies.

These maps constitute the bulk of this series. Also filed with the maps are correspondence relating to the distribution and return of the maps and occasional narrative descriptions of particular conditions affecting centralization in the supervisory district.

Accession 14214-83 contains records for the counties of Lewis through Yates, while accession 14214-85 contains records for the counties of Albany through Greene.
