We accordingly find that a cloth made of the skin of salamanders (for there really is such an animal, a kind of lizard) was incombustible, and very valuable, for wrapping up such articles as were too precious to be intrusted to any other envelopes.

Maybe the school district could make up some of the money its lost in construction delays by selling salamander skin envelopes, LOL.

I used to live in Monterey; didn't have any school-aged children at the time.

Did have a nice pair of Snail Darters for a while, until the guy who sold them to me went to jail for fraud; did you know that catfish minnows don't even make good bait?
