It is through the abilities of the members of the Board of Education that the best possible education for each student is attained. The Port Huron Area School District Board of Education members meet regularly to discuss school policies for the entire school district. They decide upon business items con- cerning all of the Port Huron Area public schools, also. Approving new personnel, appropriations of the budget, and expenditures are some of the time-consuming jobs the Board must handle. The hiring of trained educators and the overseeing of the vast school building projects are the major activities for the Board this year. The Board aids in the community ' s development by super- vising such areas as the construction of the McKenzie Library Science Building and in overseeing the dedication of Jeffer- son and Michigamme Elementary Schools. The school board accepts the responsibility of presenting proposals to the citizens of the Port Huron Area School District for maintaining and improving the educational pro- gram. This year the Board adopted an 8.5 million dollar budget, the largest in the history of the Port Huron Area Public School District. The possibility of Port Huron Junior College’s becoming a country- wide college was among the many points of interest on this year ' s agenda. As a result of the many achievements of the Board of Education, the Port Huron Area School District enjoys a high standard of education. Board of Education leads, governs, and supervises The Administration Building, fonnerly the resi- dence of Port Huron Junior College, is the central location from which the Port Huron Area School (Public School) District operates. 15
