Every two years, two new members are elected. In this way, there are at all times experienced persons on the School Board. The School Board con- sists of five men from Burgettstown Boro and seven from Smith Township. The following are the newly elected officers: Alban Dalverny. presidentg B. Culley, Vice-Presidentg Carl Latella, Secretaryg and Joseph Bertovich, Treasurer. The School Board, which is a mem- ber of both the Wfashington County and Penn- sylvania State School Directors Organization, meets monthly in the Administrative Office at Union. It is the duty of the School Board to de- termine the policy of the school, to plan the curriculum, to purchase necessary equipment, and to select the school's administrative per- sonnel and teachers. The School Board has a very ditlicult and important job. They are always striving to improve the educational standards at Union. They also try to keep Union as modern and up to date as possible. Students from other districts must pay tuition fees because the cost for school opera- tion is paid by each district. The amount is determined by the number of students that are attending the high school. Since the School Board does not have di- rect supervision over the athletic program of the school, all plans must be submitted to it For final approval. This group of civic-minded men render a great service to the community.
