School Board’s Mission
Is A Complicated One
Gary Ashley, executive
vice-president ofy the Georgia
School Boards Association,
gave board members
something to think about in a
recent issue of the GSBA
Bulletin.
“Re;fonsibility for the
public education s‘y;stem rests
with the state. The function
and o&)eration of a local public
school system are c?earl
%iven to the school boar({.
his implies that the
legislature provides resources,
the state board provides
fieneral policy, the state
egartment provides
technical assistance, and the
local school board manages
and controls the school
system within its jurisdiction.
“The superintendent is the
chief executive officer of the
board and is charged to ex
ecute, enforce and implement
the policies of the governing
body. The job soungs simple.
It isn’t. It is to carry out
board %olicy and create condi
tions that will meet the goals
of the system.
“The structure described
above sounds reasonable and
workable. Lay control of
education was K)unded on the
basis that local citizens would
guide the direction of their
educational system.
Therefore, the local school
board was created. The
technical direction for the
szstem would be provided by
the professionals. From this,
the superintendent, i.e., chief
administrative officer to the
board, administrators and
teachers were employed. (Ed.
note: Chattooga County elects
both its boardg and superinten
dent). The purpose of this
structure is to provide a
framework where f;arning is
exciting and rewarding for
students.
“The many social and
economic changes occuring in
this country have had an im
pact on our schools far beyond
The Summerville News, Thurs., Jan. 17, 1980
that affecting any other in
stitution, Are we, in the public
schools, trying to accomplish
too much? Are we equiiped to
coge with the many changes
inherent in today's society?
“To complicate our mis
sion, education is forced to
comFete with other pro;irams
for financing. The legislative
branch of government is spen
ding a great deal of time
debating school personnel and
curriculum areas. The state
board of education is becom
inq more prescriptive in its
policy decisions. The courts
continually render decisions
which impinge on many facets
of the scfioof rogram,
“Local schoFrboards are
placed in a most untenable
position.
The school system cannot
be all things to all people.
Surely, no one gelieves
We can usually insure your house, furnishings, out buildings,

seriously that the educational
pr()grum can respond to the
needs of everyone. And, | am
positive, no one believes
school board people created
this confusion, In &ct. the pa
tience and the determination
of local school boards are
remarkable.
“Where do we go from
here? The area of freedom
which the local school board
has must be greatly enhanced.
I suggest we start at home,
right in your own school
systems. ..
“Maintaining local control
of public education is critical
for the future. It will be up to
you in exercising the power
and authority you afi'eady
have. Strong, active local
boards can share in the
balance of power. Local-state
control must remain
balanced.”
