Administration School Board The most important element of the administration of the school is the board of education. This body, working within a framework set up by local and state laws, makes the regulations by which the school is man- aged. The board, a group of five men elected from the community, con- siders applications submitted by teachers upon the recommendation of the superintendent. They have the final authority on the appointment of the faculty and other school personnel. The school board members are Garold Brinkmeyer, T. J. Sorden, R. Stewart Bell, Dr. L. H. Jacques, Carl Shingledecker, and Marion Smothers. SEATED LEFT: G. Brinkmeyer, President; M. Smothers, Secretary. STANDING LEFT: T. J. Sorden, S. Bell, Dr. Jacques, C. Shingledecker. 21
