There was an unusually large mum.
ber Of pupils who failed of promotion
at close of school last session. Some
of these pupils ,attended private
schools during the summer and were
promoted on certificate from private
| teacher; some others took an exami.
nation and a small per cent. Of these
were promoted. After months tria
it has been found the pupils who
were promoted on private certificate
have done very unsatisfactory work
hence no more pupils will be admit
| ted or promoted without an eXamina
ton unless the certificate shows tha
the pupil has complied with Higf
school standard, which requires for
ty-fve minutes recitation daily II
each subject for thirty six weeks.
We feel that this Is only fair to the
student and to the High school class
es that are complying with this stand
ard of the State High schools.
The Abbeville High school this sum-
mer has been placed on the accredit'
ed list of High schools by the follow
ing colleges:
Winthrop, Clemson. The Citadel
The 8. C. University and The College
of Charleston and graduates from the
High school will be admitted to the
Freshman classes without an exami-
nation.
