School Board Formulates Policy Many people probably wonder just what the job of the school board is. Our school board is composed of seven members, elected by the people of Oakwood Township. Its members meet once each month and in special meetings. Some of the responsibilities of the school board are: to help the school administer in setting up the budget for the school year; to help decide on questions of school policy as they rise; to participate in the election of the school staff; to help evaluate the curriculum of the school. School boards also have the important responsibility of providing students with increasing educational opportunities. Members of the school board are as follows; Ray Eichhorst. C. Wesley Condon, president, Ernest Seymour, Clyde Hendricks, Cletis Zigler, (lien Doney, Joe H. Davis, and Mrs. Dorothy Dalbey. secretary. Administrative Responsibility Mr. Koontz, as administrative head of the school, has many responsibilities which most people do not realize. His duties include making recommendations to the school board for the hiring of the school staff. He is also responsible for arranging the class schedule, setting up bus runs, dealing with those students who try to quit school and deciding whether or not to operate school during bad weather. Maintenance Staff An important cog in the machinery of our school is the maintenance staff. Our janitors and bus drivers have performed the vital functions of transporting students on regular school days and to special events, and have helped to maintain the cleanliness and orderliness of our school. Members of our maintenance staff are, left to right: Maurice Miller, Dale Myers. Hershall McPherson, Layton Liggett, and Wilson Hazelbaker.
