- Terms ‘‘school purpose’’and ‘‘educational purpose’’ construed.
- The term ‘‘school purpose’’ is more limited in meaning, nature, and scope than the term ‘‘educational purpose,’’ and that although the terms are similar to the extent that the former is certainly included within the latter, the two terms themselves are not, in all their ramifications, sufficiently alike in meaning and significance as to be termed synonymous with each other; this is particularly true where such terms are used in conjunction with creation of charitable trusts. 1962 Op. Att’y Gen. p. 157. Authority of Superintendent of Schools in employment and dismissal
- of department’s employees.
- The Superintendent of Schools has no authority in law to employ or dismiss employees of the Department of Education but the Superintendent has the authority and the duty to recommend employment and dismissal from employment of employees of the department to the State Board of Education; employees of the department are employed and dismissed by the State Board of Education, but only on the recommendation of the Superintendent; the state board may not concur with recommendations made by the Superintendent but the board cannot employ or dismiss employees of the department without a recommendation to such effect by the State Superintendent of Schools. 1962 Op. Att’y Gen. p. 177.
- ‘‘Professional’’ construed.
- The word ‘‘professional’’ within the context of this paragraph and former Code 1933, § 32-401 (see now O.C.G.A. § 20-2-4) refers to educational, rather than to legal capacity. 1971 Op. Att’y Gen. No. U71-124 (decided under former § 2-6501; see Ga. Const. 1983, Art. VIII, Sec. I, Para. I)
- Instance of unwarranted disqualification from appointment to board.
- Receipt by an attorney at law under a legal partnership agreement of a prorated share of a fee for legal services furnished by the attorney’s partner to a local board of education does not disqualify the attorney from appointment to the state board of education under this paragraph or under § 20-2-4. 1971 Op. Att’y Gen. No. U71-124 (see Ga. Const. 1983, Art. VIII, Sec. II, Para. I).
