They have the tasks oi hiring personnel, supplying the transportation for students, sup- ervising the maintenance oi buildings, keeping us equipped with needed supplies, approving school budgeting, and performing many other necessary tasks. New school buildings are a major concern just now. The joint junior-senior high school and the Fairfield Township elementary projects are both moving lrorn planning stage to reality. We know that these new facilities will soon be ready to serve our community. The Class of 1959 thanks the Board oi Education for the large part they have played in our re- ceiving an excellent education at Laurel Valley. We will always prosper from it. We know this energetic organization will continue to provide the best educational facilities that they can. IO
