A BLOW TO THE NEW GRADING
SYSTEM.

By deliberately reducing the "cc'P'-
ed grad ne of two pubic school teach
ers In order to prevent those teachers
from drawing the salaries It had been
admitted they were worth. the board
of school trustees struck serious
blow af its own recently inaugurated
system under which Il was proposed
TO pay teachers in accordance WIN
their merit. OF course Il was TO be
expected that the grading bosrd would
make mistakes and that there would
be complaints from time TO time. but
who would have thought that uhe
trustees themselves at the very out
set would be guilty Of an act which
~s.S fecessity must destroy the conf
aence OF the teachers and the public
In ...e new Aystem, and which II often
repeated VIII make a complete farce
OF the work of the grading board?
The grading board is composed OF
the superintendent. the principals or
the white schools and the supervising
teachers in special departments. This
board. in accordance with the trus-
Tees segllat ons, went over the re-
cords of all. the teachers and assign
ed them to classes or grades In ac-
cordance with their respective merits.
Two OF the teachers placed in IL
grade have been in the schools Only
q comparatively short time. and for
thss reason certain members of the
board objected TO their receiving saia-
res OF S55 per month. TO which they
we're entitled as class "B" teachers.
The accuracy Of the grading boards
classifications was not questioned; 1t
was admitted that these teachers
aotrcliy belonged in class "B''. but by
q vote Oh four to three the trustees
changed their grading to &c" so that
they would be paid only $50 per
month --
Thus the trustees have said TO the
teachers. Merit cornts only as we
see at to have ii count. We have 4
grad ng system and ordinarily you
wiki be graded ami pssd upon e scien-
fihc end equitable basis. but don't de-
pend too much upon this. Your striv-
ing to merit promotion may be all in
vain. Cor whenever It suits our fancy
We arbitrarily change the board S
grading
This sounds childish and silly. bui
IL i practically what the trustees
have said by their acton.
Tris paper does not even know the
two ladies effected by the bcarc's re-
marksbse action. bu, It does know
faat they have been very unfairly
treated. And It knows. too. TIA; unless
