Seated: Glenn Thomas, Lozelle Hoffsess, Estell Meservey, I. L. McPhail, Wayne Sides, Dana Lewis. Standing: R. T. Crane, J. Russell Morris. School Byrd Seven men comprise the Brown County Community Unit School Board. These men have a difficult time consuming job for which they receive no payment. The school board meets on the first Thursday of every month. In addition, special meetings and committee meetings are often necessary. The board has the task of running an efficient and economical school system. They must see that the children are well educated, that parents are satisfied, that the public is satisfied, and that teachers are doing a good job. Complaints come in and dissatisfied parents sometimes make the life of a School Board member almost intolerable. Yet the above men have carried on and have done a very good job. This year the school board visited all the schools in the county. They watched the boys and girls at work and play and observed the teachers in classroom situations. The visits gave the members of the board a better understanding of the many sides of our children's education. They realized more than ever the value of a good teacher, good equipment and facilities and, above all, the need for everyone, children, parents, public, teachers and board to cooperate in order to make our schools serve our children well. « 4 »
