The citizens of the city of Elgin are justifiably proud of their system, which is noted for its efficient teachers and the line quality of the work done by the students. Great credit for this excellent school system should go to the Board of Education, whose members are elected by the interested citizens of Elgin. The educational advancement of the youth of the city is the aim foremost in their minds. The Board now consists of nine members with Edwin Gardner as president. This year the Board voted that special emphasis be laid on the study of the Constitution of the United States. Every student taking history or social problems was required to know the facts relative to the framing of the Constitution, its establishment, its important provisions, and its long and glorious history. Another important project of the Board of Education was the installation in the high school of a sprinkling system which adds to the students' safety and decreases the insurance premium. In addition to these extra projects there is the more or less routine work, including the repair work in the school buildings, the appointment of teachers, the selection of new text books, the planning of a budget, and the controlling of all school properties. To all its tasks the Board gives the most careful consideration and attention. 16
