Samuel C. Bowen William N. Decker Dr. Levi Gilbert Park S. Hlte William F. Lehmann J. Foster Meek J. Lester Laughlin Dr. Leonard N. Ray Paul R. Reynolds Robert L. Thompson Benner M. Wilson Uzwgoafacfofg ' The direction of an educational program for approxi- mately 14,000 students! The election and supervision of 630 employees-more or less! The management of a budget that comes close to Fd5l,600,000! This was the big task faced by the Board of Education in the year 1941-42. The nine men, representatives of the people, who direct the affairs of Altoona's public school system are prominent in business, professional, and industrial circles. They are men of integrity who have built successful careers-men whose knowl- edge and experience lit them to shape the course of our educa- tional program. To avoid any great or sudden change in the personnel of the board, the law provides that three members be elected every second year, for a term of six years-thus there are always six or more experienced men in the group. There's nothing monotonous in this service. The board members set the millage for taxesg they purchase supplies for the entire school systemg they see that buildings and equipment are in good repairg they control the erection of new buildingsg they determine educational policies. They also elect and super- vise a varied group of employees. The largest division, dealing directly with the student body, includes 495 supervisors, prin- cipals, teachers, nurses, and dental hygienistsg another group, which contributes largely to the comfort and welfare of stu- dents, includes 85 janitors, janitresses, firemen, repairmen, and others. Two smaller groups include 25 cafeteria workers and 25 clerks. We, as students, commend the Board of Education for its efficiency and express our appreciation for the fine educational opportunities we have enjoyed. Page Eight
