The idea of school boards grew
out of territorial law, predating
statehood and the Michigan constitu­
tion. Public Act 63 of 1837 defined
a procedure for creating primary
school districts and a district "school
board" to oversee the schools.
UNDER MICHIGAN'S School
Code (Sec. 380.1282), a local board
of education "sha11 establish and
carryon the grades, schools and
departments it deems necessary or
desirable for the maintenance and
improvement of the schools, deter­
mine the courses of study to be pur­
sued, and cause the pupils attending
