Well, joe, these are the people of the Board of Education, who are elected to their positions by the qualified voters of the Central School District. This unpub- licized group is responsible for the management of the schools, the expenditure of the public funds, and has formulated the policies that have kept up the pace of modern education. They have not only given their time freely to establish better educational oppor- tunities, but they have taught the student how to live in a more democratic way of life.
