The purpose of this publication is to focus attention upon a rapidly growing development in public school administration--the increasing interest in personnel administration as a process which can be identified through a description of certain formal functions which every school district must perform. The existence of adequate personnel policies is of fundamental importance to the teacher just as the existence of an adequate instructional staff is to the students. Following an introduction, the document addresses: (1) administrative organization for personnel; (2) staff recruitment and orientation; (3) staff evaluation; and (4) staff development. The closing summarizes the issues and problems discussed in the bulletin. (Contains 24 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.]
