School Board Left to right: Maurice Dee, John Danaher, Duruood Lanterman, william Doom, Harold Schilling, Stephen Walsh and Albert Awe The school board has seven members, each elected for three-year terms. Annually an election is held to replace or re-elect the board members whose terms have expired. The board meets regularly on the first Monday of every school month, and special meetings can be called by the president. Usually Mr. Ritchie meets with the board. Hr. John Danaher is president, and Mr. Durwood Lanterman, who has been on the board since its organization in 1920, has held the office of secretary continuously since that time. Among the duties of the school board are the hiring and dismissing of teachers, paying the teachers, making improvements and repairs, and estab- lishing rules for the efficient operation of the school. After the election in the spring, the board discusses the teachers for the coming school year and offers new contracts. These members preside over our school district, which is located in township 18, range h, and west of the third principal meridian. Emett Murphy of Elkhart is the treasurer of this district. He wish to honor the men who have served their community and our school as members of the board of education. 4
