Secretary - Mrs. Marge Renfro Bookkeeper - Mrs. Jacquie Qarland 10 Administration EDUCATOR'S PLAN Education is making many changes. The state legislature set up new guidelines to be implemented by 1987-. Teacher testing was evoked as part of the governor's education policies. All these are present changes that the administration must deal with. A Building program was necessary for elementary school due to the increased enrollment and the guidelines. The school board consists of five members elected by the patrons of the district. These dedicated men and women have a challenge - to meet the budget with the ever increasing cost of living, maintaining Worth Central require- ments, setting policies for all three schools and acting as a liaison between patrons and school. Overall future plans include new building program for high school. In serving in this administrative capacity the efforts are often taken for granted and misinter- preted due to lack of information. Appreciation is extended to these people for making quality education possible. Superintendent of Gurdon Public Schools - Mr. Bobby Smithson
