The head of the Department of Education is the State Board of
Education.

In accordance -with Chapter 506 of the Acts of 1916, the members
of the State Board of Education are appointed by the Governor. One
member is appointed annually for a term of seven years from the first
Monday in May next succeeding the appointment.

The State Board of Education selects a State Superintendent of
Schools, and through him and his assistants, has general control of
the Public School System of the State. The Board is a legislative
body, and, as such, enacts by-laws and prescribes rules and regulations
for carrying into effect the provisions of the school laws. These by-
laws and rules include regulations for the construction of school build-
ings, for grading and standardizing all public schools, for the certifi-
cation of public school teachers, for taking the bi-ennial school cen-
sus, and for a uniform series of forms and blanks for the use of
county superintendents, school official and teachers.
