C ntral Cffice: the center of th yste Day by day school continues, we come and go having each day usually go like clockwork. But, in order to do so there must be a main building block. That is where the Blue Springs Board of Education comes in. Not many think about the school district beyond the school offices them- selves, but in every district there must be some place where every- thing can be tied together. The Board of Education is the place where most of the main deci- sions are made, such as cancelling school because of snow, changing 30 Central Office the schools for the new 2-2-2- plan. taking care of the district budget. and so much more, more than we re- ally think about. Because ofthe 2-2-2 plan, which is changing the school system, many questions have been asked. Even though some of those questions have been answered, many still re- main. The Board of Education is run by many individuals. Dr. Charles McGraw is the Blue Springs Superintendent. There are also many other people who help him, because Blue Springs is a very large school district and is in no way, a one man job. Some ofthe people who help him very much but are often overlooked are the secretaries. They are the people who answer the phones, make appointments, type letters, answer mail, make dates, take down notes, and so much more. Now all this proves is that Blue Springs is a rapidly growing district that is always busy and never boring! Bmy Coffman
