These individuals ser e as trustees for the citizens who are in effect stockholders in the compelling business of educat- ing citizens and fostering the spirit of deniocracv. With the reconnnendation and assistance of the superintendent this board has the authoritv to establish general policies, to carry out these policies, and to specify the adniinistrati e rules and regula- tions necessary to implement the Board policies.
