Judy Augsburger recently became the first woman mayor of Bluffton. Without studying the photo, can you name the first woman elected to the Bluffton school board? It was Lois Rodabaugh. She was president of the school board when this photo was taken.

Here is the Bluffton Exempted Village School board of education during the 1967-68 school year.
