fifty for nine months and one for
nine and one-half months. The law
now requires that districts maintain
eight months school if they are to
participate in the state apportionment
About one-half the districts are voting
just enough school to comply with tn
law. The recommendation of this
office to the electors of the districts
is that they vote nine months school,
l solicit the support of the members
of this Board and especially of those
members who live in districts having
lesst than nine months school, in
bringing about the change from eight
to nine or more months per year
