BOARD OF EDUCATION We, the class of 1956, would like to thank the Board of Education for all the kind effort they have put forth for our benefit during our four years of high school. The Board of Education is composed of seven members, each elected for a term of three years. During the past year much of the Board s work has centered about expansion of facilities to meet the greater enrollments. With the completion of the new addition to the school, six classrooms will have been added and greater opportunity for curriculum expansion at high and grade levels will be possible. All authority for operation of the school is vested in the Board and, although much of its responsibility is delegated, it retains and asserts supervisory and policy-making functions. The Atlanta Board of Education is a member of the Illinois Association of School Boards. As such, it conforms to the highest ethical practices and procedures consistent with maintenance of the school’s recognition by the State Department of Education and the North Central Association. The Board members are pictured below: front row, left to right, Paul Adams, Dewitt Yeast, Dr.Ijams' back row, left to right, Keith Pope, Robert Wertheim, Merlin Curtis, Herbert Smith.
