The overall responsibility for the school system belongs to him. Working with fellow administrators, faculty members, and the school board, he makes policies that affect the entire student body. His most time consuming and important role is public relations. Other duties involve screening employees, answering correspondence, and trying to solve system wide difficulties. Working with Mr. Smith are Deputy Superintendent Joe Roberts and Assistant Superintendent Norman Crowder. They supervise adult education, plan individual school schedules, maintain in-service education and keep an inventory of all school equipment. Theirduties also cover federal programs providing for low income students and summer school programs for migrants. 12lT he System nun.. ....: '..z:m:..M-....... -..M-W. .ttsr - lm, ,-, I an X .Z Superintendent Assistant Superintendent Thurman Smith Norman Crowder A ,f - , ,- f ,, Tfziga Cn --ni r U T'zi,.j -., ,,.. , 2 N ,vw .,.
