School Board Is
Still Popular as
Control Device
Most Cities Use 1t,
Study by Federal
Official Finds

Americas democratic institution
the public school board-continues
TO hold its own amid changing pat
terms in municipal government, ac-
cording to a report by the United
States Office of Education.
w. S. Deffenbaugh, chief of the
Division of American School SyS-
TENS, who prepared the report, says:
when cities began to adopt the
commission form of government. the
question was raised as to whether
the city board of education would
not in time be abolished and the
schools placed directly under the
control of the city commission.
Despite predictions by some mu-
nicipal government authorities that
this would happen, we have seen
city after city adopt the commission
form of government, but in only two
cities of 10000 population or more
Chattanooga, Tenn, and st. Paul,
MINIS there no board of educa-
ton today" Mr.. Deffenbaugh says
Schools in these cities are under
the control of the city commission. u
In discussing the relationship of
the school board to other city Of
fees and officials, the report takes
up the problem of school budget re-
vision by municipal body.
In those cities in which some mu-
nicipal body may revise item by
item the estimates of the board OF
education" Mr.. Deffenbaugh con-
cludes, 1T would seem that such
municipal body and not the board
of education may determine school,
policies by approving or disapprov-
ing the expenditures of funds fol

purposes that the board of educa-
ton deems necessary.
IF, as claimed by some persons,
the school budget should be re-
viewed by a municipal body, such
body should have authority to re-
wise only the total amount. The
board of education itself should de-
eide where reductions in its budget
can be made with least detriment to
the schools"
Boards of education in the ma
jority of cities make thu school su-
perintendents their executive officers
in all matters connected with the
administration of their respective
school systems, all other officers be-
ing responsible to the board through
the superintendent of schools.
This procedure violates a prin-
ciple of school administration, the
United States Office of Education
bulletin points out, since educa-
tional and business problems overlap
and intermingle.

ferred by boards of education upon
