board job demanding Dery KAVMaKee nF MR. CHARLES BRISCOE MR. HAROLD EIFERT Assistant Superintendent Assistant Superintendent MR. DONALD RODERICK Superintendent of Schools MR. RICHARD BARTALINI MRS. LEE CAVANAUGH The Board of Education had a demanding job this year in dealing with school fi- nances. It is responsible for a six million dollar budget and for maintaining 15 million dollars' worth of school buildings and grounds. This year one-half million was spent on the remodeling of our own science wing. Construction also began on the Chipman School, the Will C. Wood School, and a new wing on the Donald D. Lum School, and the Board had Bay Farm Island surveyed for several elementary schools and a third high school. Thirty more teachers were hired to meet expanding enrollment and 439,000 dollars was requested in federal grants to finance programs in reading, expanded guidance services, work experience, and pre-school education. The Board of Education is also responsible for over 600 employees, |4 elementary schools and two high schools totaling |1,400 students, a Child Care Center, and a comprehensive adult school program. The Board of Education began five new phases in their work: to open a continua- tion school for students who dropped out of high school; to begin the procedures to implement the new teacher's suspension law; to engage in a Neighborhood Youth Corps program; to adopt policies governing Board-employee relations; and to con- duct a Head Start Program under the Federal Anti-Poverty Act for pre-schoolers.
