During the school year of 1941-42, all clforts have been exerted to remedy the inadequate income of the educational fund. During the month of July, 1911. the Board of Education decided to run the Rockford public schools in the fall as long as the money on hand lasted. Plans were then made to keep the schools in session for ten weeks. On November 7, 1941. the schools were officially closed to take care of the deficit of about $155,000 in the educational fund. Mayor C. Henry Bloom appointed a committee of forty-four citizens in October in an attempt to solve the school’s financial situation. This committee, known as the Citizens’ Schools Committee, was composed of a cross section of Rockford townspeople. After the committee was organized, Mr. O. M. Spaid. Rev. Paul A. Washburn, and Mr. Philip N. Peterson were appointed as heads of committees to determine a solution. Chairmen of the Board of Education's varied committees are shown discussing, before the regular hoard meeting, their reports with Mr. Whitehead. Seated (left to right) arc Mrs. Bates, Educational Committee Chairman, Mr. Whitehead, President of the Board of Education, and Mr. Estwing, Chairman of the Purchasing Committee.
