The Faculty Advisory Committee pro- vides an opportunity for the staff to participate actively in school administration. In addition, the Student Advisory Committee allows student organizations to assist in evaluating policies. Be- cause the administration holds active membership in professional organizations, it is able to keep abreast of new ideas in secondary education. The administration and Department Chairmen play a direct part in the recruiting and selection of staff in working with the Superintendent of Schools. In choosing staff members, the Department Chair- men and administration concern themselves with the quantity and the quality of each candidate’s experience. Pre-school in-service conferences are held to aid new teachers to become constructive members of the staff, and for all teachers, educa- tional workshops are planned and held on the first Monday of each month. Members of the staff are encouraged by the administration to increase their formal education and to use new techniques and teaching practices. To help improve staff-effectiveness, the administration employs classroom observations and follow-up interviews with each teacher individually.
