F ,H LJ YQ Ki in if lg dl r ini ll ir me U mf E. S. Kerr Superintendent of Salem Schools Civic-minded men compose the Salem Board of Education. They approve appoint- ments, buy textbooks and supplies, keep the buildings in good shape, promote the welfare of the schools, and set high stand- ards of education. Alfred Fitch was unanimously elected president of the board this year. John C. Litty was selected vice-president, while George Koontz retained his post as clerk. Salem voters responded with their usual generosity in 1953 when they voted to re- new a former school levy and passed a new one. Because of this new levy the board was able to approve the largest budget in Salem's history to meet increased expenses. E. S. Kerr, superintendent of schools, works closely with the Board of Education, acting as its chief executive. The respon- sibility of setting up an educational pro- gram in accordance with the policies estab- lished by the board rests upon him. Through his guidance the schools are run to best serve the needs of Salem youth.
