Amendment No 30 Would Take Education Board Out of Politics
Ealter notes this is part of a nine article series on proposed measures for the November General Election. Amendment No 30 would reestablish the State Board of Education as an elective body with six-year terms and no pay, removing it from political influence. The board would appoint a superintendent, set curricula, select textbooks, and oversee funding and policies. Phipps, then Russellville education head, advocates removing the department from politics.
