According to the new rules, which take effect Sept.

1, a superintendent, principal or supervisor of education must obtain a master's degree and have one additional year of graduate work. Specific courses also vary, according to position.

The board's action on the association's powers stemmed from a lawsuit filed in Knox-' ville this year, in which the TSSAA was charged with dis 25" screen diagonally measured GE Reliacolor Chassis Spectra-hrite picture tuhe AFCSensitronic tuning Insta-color picture Sharpness control Bold Mediterranean styling the middle of the term," Hale said.
