Teachers. Read This.

In recalling the agencies that have con-
tributed to the success OF the pub &c school
system of Virginia, this Department bears
cheerful testimony TO the labOrs OF the
faithful teachers employed in the schools
Often ill-prepared and inexperienced,
with limited opportunities for systematic
instruction or professional training, with
ont rnide or assistance, they have toiled
in the school-room under the inspiration
drawn only from an honest purpose to
faithfully discharge their duties.
At the same time, it is but just and
proper that there should be recognition
of the services of superintendents and
trustees. The intelligent, conscientious
exercise of their functions, II considered
only in relation to licensing and employ
inq teachers, to say nothing OF their 9TH
or valuable services, has been potent
factor in building mp the school system
Gratihed at the evidences of our SUI
stantial progress in school work, and ap-
nrcciatlve of the efforts which have been
instrumental in the attainment OF our
present educational status, we cannot fail
10 observe that progress brings new prob
lens. demands new methods and renewed
activity. These conditions impose grave
RESPONSIBILITIES upon the authorities that
administer public school affairs, and they
mnst. in part, at least, share them.
The fact, that the progress OF general
enlightenment increases the demand for
.till,d work in the school-roOm. should
arouse a keoner sense of responsibility on
the part of school officers and teachers
In order that the schools may meet the
demands of this enlightenment, the stand
ard OF qualification required of teachers
must be raised. While an intelligent con
versatism must guide this effort teachers
must thoroughly equip themselves by
Il ore varied and extensive attainmentsi
and more strictly professional culture.
Prominent among the means available
for the accomplishment of these objects
are the Peabody Institutes. These insti-
tntes. designed for the special benefit Of
the teachers of the public schools, are
supported by Peabody appropriations
made through Hon. J. L. NJ. Curry, Gen
erai Agent. 1t is their province to inspire
higher ideals, TO point out better methods
10 stimulate effort in the direction Of NOR
liberal culture, and TO create a more pro
fes,ional spirit Want of appreciation 0
these advantages implies ineificIency.-
SUPERINTENDENT and trustees are held re
snansible for whateve. iDefficiency ma.
exist. Therefore, there is no escape from
the conclusion that 1t IS their duty to urg
teachers to attend these institutes. AM
the Stale Superintendent, from a sense o
his own responsibility, feels that 1t is hi
; duty to encourage the employment
teachers who attend institutes, in lreier
encc to those " no do not.
Very respectfully,
