MR. ODMAN, Principal MR. STEINKE, Superintendent Administration To expend wisely and efficiently a school district budget of 35518563 for equipment, supplies, instruction and transportation is only a part of the tasks of administration. Hiring staff mem- bers, arranging schedules, planning bus routes, providing classrooms, counseling students, and ar- ranging activities are others that keep the superintendent and principals busy. Much of their work must also be with the patrons in interpreting the school program and needs of the community. Thus leadership in curriculum planning with teachers and patrons becomes a vital role.
