J I I C' g x X 'T 3 U K 3 G C 0 f ' - I - Board of Education '23 Since 1911 the Board of Education for the city of Uniontown has been composed of seven members as required by law for a third class school district. The present members are: Mr. C. L. Farson, presidentg Mr. Joseph W. Ray, vice president 5 Mr. A. E. Wright, secretaryg Mr. W. Russell Carr, Mr. E. C. Cornish, Mr. S. E. Williams, and Mr. Jacob H. Wentzel. The school board of any city should be composed of men and Women with the greatest integrity and ability They are the connecting link be- tween the functioning school and the people of a community. It is neces- sary above all things that they have the interest of the people at heart. It is the Board of Education that determines the policy of expending the peoples' money, tha.t employs efficient instructors, and that procures the best for the school that the money can provide. , The Uniontown Board of Education has lived up to the ideal qualities of such an organization. The accomplishments of this group since its organization in 1911 have been marked. The present Senior High School was ready for use in the fall of 1911 when pupils enrolled. After that the Park, Craig and Gallatin buildings were erected. Then the old Central school building was removed to be replaced by the Ella Peach School. Practically all of the members of the present Board have seen the greatest endeavor of all-the two Junior High School-materialize. They are now the most decided asset to the community. Only this year the Boyle School was completed, giving this community a school system of which it can feel justly proud. The school children of Uniontown are deeplyendebted to the Board of Education whose wisdom, forsight, and thought have given them so many more advantages than pupils of former years enjoyed. 2 12
