Abstract
Many systems of community involvement are developed and implemented simply to quell pressure groups within the community and relieve tensions that may be presenting difficulties for the school district administration. For example, in many instances during recent years, bi racial committees have been developed in various commu nities simply to provide an outlet for pressures that have developed as communities go through the process of de segregation. Biracial groups are only one example of the result of a pressure situation, and they often serve a con structive purpose. However, many other groups are formed to deal with issues that are sometimes temporary, and are not of major importance in relation to the development and progress of the district. The unfortunate effect is that these committees, often questionable in terms of production, may have a negative effect upon district development. What is needed is a committee structure permanent in nature, yet flexible enough to provide for examination of each new issue as it arises. Each district needs a system for evalua tion and recommendation that is on-going, not temporary.
