Board ol Education An organization of little recognition but of extreme significance in the functioning of the school system is the board of education. Although little attention is given to this governing group by the student body, the board members are constantly planning and carrying on for the betterment of the educational facilities in the Independence school system. The present members of the board are: O. L. O'Brien, presidentg Donald E. Stewart, R. P. Scotty S. E. McDanie1g Edwin Potts, and W. N. White. Ex-officio members are: J. H. Clement, superintendent of schoolsg and Florence Harper, clerk. The members are elected for a term of four years, three members being elected every two years. The work of the board is carried on by four committees, which are finance, teachers, building, grounds, and library, A meeting of the entire board is held regularly each month. Since there are only six members, some are compelled to serve on more than one committee. Because of this fact, each individual member is required to give much time and thought in the operation of a complete school system. In spite of this added burden, each committee functions smoothly and for the prime purpose of a more efficient school system to the tax-payers and citizens of Independence and increased opportunities to the students. The citizens of Independence should be commended upon their splendid chosing of the board members. Each member is a competent business man and respected citizen. In performing the various duties of their positions. the school board must take into consideration all the consequences of any action, and many times the board is placed in a critical position, but always they come to a conclusion which completely justifies all parties concerned. Often faced by financial limitations the board is forced to economize, however, all of the school necessities are had and many added luxuries are available due to their careful discrimination. The student body is deeply grateful for the many opportunities and pleasant conditions which they are afforded due to the work of the board of education. BLACK
