BOARD OF EDUCATION The managing of our public schools is under the supervision of the Rockford Board of Education. The members of the board are appointed by the mayor and serve with- out pay. The board is made up of various businessmen and private citizens. The main function of this board is to decide policies for the entire school system. Each board member is assigned by the president to serve on one of three committees. The Educational Committee handles the instructional businessethe hiring and the ap- proving of teachers. The finance and Purchasing Committee examines the ordering of supplies and adjusts the salary rates of the teachers. The building and Grounds Committee determines the need for new buildings and has charge of the upkeep and repair of schools. The committee also has charge of the custodial staff. This year the Board of Education was undergoing drastic changes. Many new members were added to the board to replace those who felt that they had done their bit of service for the city schools. We people in the city of Rockford are indeed fortunate to have such capable and unselfish people working to improve the educational system, and provide for the children of Rockford the type of schools of which we can well be proud.
