SCHOOL BOARD Finding out what the voters want, and then establishing the policies or general programs of the school are the important functions of the St. Louis Park School Board. It is then up to the superintendent and administration to carry these ideas to the students. Student interests and requirements are considered before the school board sets the curriculum for the school year. How much money the school program receives is another important issue determined by the school board. Any proposals on the building plan are discussed among the members of the school board. They present their ideas to the citizens of St. Louis Park, who are able to hear the advantages and disadvantages of each proposal and then vote on the proposal they believe to be the best. 10
