386 The public schools of Portland with an enrollment of 35,385, are housed in forty-eight buildings, valued at more than $2,000,000. With the exception of three high schools, these buildings are constructed of wood. This does not mean that they are cheap buildings; their cost is upward of $4,000 per school room, which is more than need be paid for the cheaper class of brick buildings.
