Alice Ferguson, local resident and teacher c.1894, wrote about the ideal conditons in a school that would benefit both students and teachers. "My model school is well ventilated, with an ever changing current of air; warm fresh air displacing the vitiated air. This change of air is not in the form of a draught that can be felt, nor by the opening of windows on opposite sides of the room, but any well-arranged ventilating system built into the school, so that at no hour of the day is the air of the character that causes yawning and drowsiness. This school has a basement and a furnace which warms the floors and all parts of the building evenly, so that on cold winter mornings, the children do not require to sit by the stove to get warm, nor need to be subjected to a "Monday Morning Freeze".
