Abstract

The impact of scientific, technological, social and economic change on the American way of life necessitates a re-examination of the educational system. These changes modify established needs and create new needs to be met by the public school system. Instructional programs and supporting services must be developed to meet these needs. The primary purposes of school district organization are to make possible: (l) the desired quality or excellence of the program and services; (2) the efficiency of the organization for providing the programs and services; and (3) the economy of operation, or the returns received for the tax dollar invested in education.
