The board of school directors, which meets the first Thursday of every month in the council room of the Town Hall, is a symbol of that barrier which safeguards the American way of life. By means of progress in education we can combat all evil forces with success. These seven citizens elected by the people of Emmaus to supervise the development of children in the Emmaus public schools have a task of immense importance. The board of school directors, subject to state regulation provides school supplies, improvement, and care of the grounds and buildings, finances, and approves the curriculum. During the year vacancies are filled, taxes levied, appropriations granted, and resignations accepted. For the year 1941 the board approved a new course for the high school, which will deal with agricultural work. The course is just another example of the board's accomplish' ment in keeping abreast of the times. Mr. Theodore R. Gardner is solicitor for the board. Ivlembers of the board are: George S. Harwick, President Claude H. Keller, Secretary Edwin L. Muth, Vice President Ralph W. Weidner, Treasurer Robert G. Stauffer, George S. Stephen, Albert B. Wieand 8
