Mr. Mlaite, as business manager, is respon- sible for collecting and spending funds and has to handle the budget for building plans as well.

Together with the board, they are largely responsi- ble for the ever rising standards of our school system. ARLYN E. WAITE B.S. in Ed., Northern Illinois University
