A part of CHS that is mostly heard and not seen is the school board. Regardless, their importance cannot be underestimated. They keep the school running smoothly by making rules and regulations. They also make decisions concerning teacher's sal- aries and other financial matters, bussing, purchasing new equipment for the school, and the list of their duties continues on. These men of importance are, front row: Virgil Woltoff, William Slade, Arnold Lund, and Clerk Bernard Schneller; back row: Lee Everhart, Dick Hoffman, Principal Robert Tupper, Allan Ulrikson, Charles Kuehl, and Superintendant Earl Dean. An important part of the year was spent planning the new addition to CHS. Several meetings concerned bids for two-way radios for the busses which were partially paid for by the class of 1975. The school board approved the multi-district voca- tional school that was proposed during the year. The school failed because of a negative vote by the Beresford board. The board also agreed to expand the curriculum for next year by adding an Industrial Arts Program. Members of the board are shown here at work. They were caught while dis- cussing teacher's salaries for next year. The topic became a big issue during the last few months of school. 28
