SCHOOL BOARD The monthly meeting of the Kings Mountain Board of Education will be held Monday at 7:30 p.m. at Central School. I THINK OBITUkRO By Harold Uneberger Candidate For Kings Mountain Board of Education MRS. DELLA H. BORDERS One of the most important things a school board can do is hire a competent superintendent. It is he who has the day-to-day job of making the System work. If he is a good administrator, he delegates most of the routine management jobs to his staff, but as the Board’s number one employee, the superintendent is its number one responsibility. The Board must back the superintendent with a complete set of written policies and then see to if that these policies are carried out. There is no substitute for an easily understood set of policies in preventing misunderstandings between school employees, the public and the Board of Education. The function of the Board is not to run the schools, but toseetoit that they are run effectively. Funeral services for Mrs. Della Hord Borders, 84, of Patterson Springs, sister of Forrest R. Hord and Mrs. Lala Putnam of Kings Mountain, were conducted Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. from Patterson Grove Baptist Church of which she was a member. Interment following In the church cemetery.
