Mr. Glenn W. Todd, Superintendent Superintendent Glenn W. Todd has directed the affairs of District 9 since l95l , during which time the school has progressed appreciably. Mr. Todd has proved to be a fine administrator, liked and trusted by his personnel and the community. During the past five years, school figures have risen necessitating new build- ing programs and other emergency measures. The East School was erected during his time and helps to point out the careful planning of the superintendent. Mr. Todd was raised in Altamont, Kansas. His early training was at the Kansas State TeachersCollege, and it was in Kansas where he did his first teaching, in a small rural school in that state. Since then he has taken his Masters Degree at the University of Colorado and done graduatework toward his doctorate at Columbia University and at the University of Southern California. His school experience has been varied but has remained for the most part in administrative lines. He has served as elementary principal, school superintendent, and college president.

Thisis basically the dutyof the board: caring for the overall policy making of the district, and representing the tax payers of the area in matters of public edu- cation . What a school budget well along in the six-figure mark and ever-increasing school population, the maior problem is often how to get the most for the taxpayers' dollar and yet keep ahead of the school build- ing crisis. This year's board could not plan further with the facilities in the district at mid-year and called for a bond election to build anaddition to East Elementary School. This was needed to provide the minimum room for the incoming primary students in the fall whose numbers would more than strain facilities. At the time this annual was printed it was not known how the election turned out, but the board, at any rate, was planning for an emergency situation . What on paper promised to be one monthly meeting tosetplans for school, soon became many monthly meetings plus many hours of extra duty on the outside figure costs, comparing effectiveness ofeducation here with other areas and the like. The people above served unstintingly, and for the most part without praise or thanks. The annual staff would like to express appreciation at this time and by this means to the hard work- ing group above, say We think we speak for the whole community in voicing 'Thank You'5 we know we speak for ourselves .
