NOTICE TO TEACHERS
AND SUPERINTENDENTS
FROM DEPARTMENT o f
PUBLIC INSTRUCTION
DENVER, COLO.

oChNSA, oOlosS q ttiAS AC, Aoi
To the County Superintendents:
| desire to direct your atten-
ton to the new laws becoming
effective Aug. 4th next, unless
referred to the people of the
State unoer the referendum, and
now known as House Bill No.
85, both of which make g change
in the duties of your office as
well as adding new duties, all OF
which, in my judgement, need
immediate attention so as!to give
general notice and the widest
opportunity to each actual and
prospective teacher desirous of
attending a normal training
school during the present vaca-
tion for the full period of six
weeks provided for under the
latter bill; otherwise. some of
the most promising young teach
ers of Colorado will be prevented
from obtaining even thirdgrade
certificate at the coming August
December and March exami-
nations.
am in hear y sympathy with
the raising OF the standard of
teachers and educators in Colo,
but did not approve of either bill
in the present form, believing
that more consideration should
have been shown the great num-
ber of excellent teachers in this
State who have successfully
taught here for many years
without having had the opportu-
nifty in earlier life of attending
high school with a graded four
year course, but who, in my
opinion, have obtained equally
as good a training for this line
Of work by being specially quail
fed by nature for teachers, and
by being endowed with sufficient
energy to take advantage of all
the opportunities coming within
their reach, and also feared
that raising the standard of re-
auiremento so radically at this
time without reasonable notice
to those affected, would result
in the loss of SO many of our
competent teachers, whose GER
tifcates have now or are about
to expire, that the number of
teachers obtainable for the COM
ing year might be inadequate to
meet the demand, it being deem
ed probable that the strict en-
forcement of the spirit of the
law would also prevent the re-
newal of first grade certificates
issued under the old law.
1t seemed to me at the time
this bill was pending, and Sc
seems at this time that it would
have been only common justice
to that large army of teachers in
this State who from either lack
of opportunity or means have
been deprived of the required a
years high school training, to
have had a clause inserted in
this law exempting from this re-
auirement such Of their number
as have successfully taught in
this State for period of say 3
years, and especially so as SINH
lar exemptions have invariably
been made in this and neighbor-
ing States at the time of enacting
