ADMINISTRATION DUTIES of the clerk of the Board of Trustees are both varied and interesting. They include calling of the board meetings and keeping the minutes at these meetings, aud- iting bills, and issuing school War- rants and monthly payrolls. Recently the responsibility of reporting the income tax deduction for about fifty employees has been added to the above list. Also the payment by students for loss of books during the school year are made to this office. During the year an account is kept of receipts and expenditures of the district as a basis for compiling the annual school budget. The duties do not end in June. During the summer, contracts for teachers, bus drivers, and private transportation facilities must be prepared. MISS MILDRED MARTIN CLERK OF THE BOARD 1 P ROBABLY there is no depart- ment in high school Whose im- portance is more underestimated than the attendance department. Re- cords are kept according to rules and regulations prescribed by the State Board of Education and provide that one day of attendance be allowed for each 240 minutes of pupil attendance in any type of day or evening class in high schools. Upon the daily aver- age attendance for a given year de- pends the amount of state funds ap- portioned to the particular school district for use during the ensuing school year. Owing to the nature of his work, no other person in the school bears quite the same relation- ship to the students as the attendance officer. His popularity fluctuates like the stock market. It is up today and down tomorrow, ad infinitum. MR. GEORGE GRAHAM ATTENDANCE OFFICER .,. ow Q Q, ,ms . ek lk-W' c Q ' ff' 1 , I. -. ,diff- ' ff-' fd ,ffm ' ' I Uwiivsi aseo '5

THE purpose of the school board of trustees is to represent the people's interest in the manage- ment of the school and the school's activities. It is composed of five members from five districts. The men who are members of the board are: Mr. Todd McGinnis, Mr. Valentine Van Duzer, Mr. George Wanglin, Mr. Walter Bolles, and Mr. Hubert H. Townshend. They act as overseers in tl1e busi- ness management of the school. As part of their duties, they approve new employees, expenditures, and payment of bills. The board holds regular meetings to discuss business on the second Thursday of each month. Because there is so much work for the board a regular secretary, Miss Mildred Martin, who has been with us many years, is employed. Her duties are numerous. She has charge of buying supplies. paying bills, and taking care of operation bills. The responsibility placed on the board is one of great importance. Obviously, capable men are selected, ones who have the people's trust and confidence. The members chosen represent the type of character the school strives to develop.
