A STUDY TO DETERMINE THE RIGHTS OF SUPERINTENDENTS AND PRINCIPALS AS PERCEIVED BY BOARD OF EDUCATION MEMBERS, SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS, AND TEACHERS OF CLASS III PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE STATE OF NEBRASKA.
Abstract
The United States Constitution did not specifically provide for education; therefore public schools became the responsibility of the various states through application of Article X. States accepted this responsibility and developed provisions in their constitutions and statutes for education. Through the laws passed by the Legislature of each state, boards of education were established to provide and govern the educational opportunities for the youth within the geographic boundaries of the area the board governs. These boards were only "creatures of statute and possessed no other powers than those granted them by the legislature." Boards could contractually grant rights, which were theirs to give, to their employees.
