Making Education Decisions Wfhat is a superintendents job? Oh my! sighed Mr. Blackburn. He is the man largely responsible for the 'hiring and firing' of our teachers, and also for the improve- ment of educational facilities in Hartford. Mr. Black- burn has a few unorthodox secretarial duties, such as preparing the agenda for meetings of the Board of Education, taking notes and recording the minutes of these meetings. Wforking alongside Mr. Blackburn is the school board, which has been busy planning and supervising the construction of the South Side School, finished this year. The school board is also responsible for the school program and approving the school calendar. Mr. Blackburn's executive secretary is Miss Leila Lewis, who makes out state reports and keeps a record of expenditures and receipts in the operation of the city schools.
