Public Schools System Must Run Free of Politics Says Claxton
Washington March 8 Associated Press federal education commissioner Claxton argues politics and education must separate to improve school governance. He outlines a nonpartisan state board of education with seven to nine members, long terms, no reappointment, and a purely legislative role. An executive commissioner would lead the department with a strong staff while universities may be exempt from board control. The memo also notes a nationwide drive to curb sale of patent medicines with excessive alcohol.
