Board Of Education Our school board is the legislative group, chosen from among the citizens of our com- munity, which willingly gives its services for the best interest of our school. It determines policies which it believes will give our students the best educational advantages for its own future aid for intelligent citizenship in our democracy. Doubtless some of us fully realize how many and how great are the problems which our board must meet, With the swift change of times, new problems arise. Especially do we think now to the ,qrcat crisis our country is in and how it will effect our educational system. Not least among the duties of our board is the wise expenditure of the tax dollar which supports our schools, We feel that we have a school which we can justly feel proud and as students we are thank- ful for the well kept and maintained buildings and grounds making our surroundings as pleas- ant as possible. For all of these advantages and for all of the instructors the board has chosen to work with us, we the student body, wish to express to our school hoard our thanks and sincere appreciation.
