FAIRFIELD SCHOOL
CHILDREN SKIPPED"
GRADE NOW DENOTED
Supt. Bowman Issues New Rul-
ing Which Calls Many
Protests From Indignant
Parents.
Ry Our Special Correspondent

(By our Special correspondent
Fairfield, Sept. 1S-Parents of chill
dren who have been allowed to Skip
a grade in the local schools are in
censed at the new rule promulgated
by Superintendent of Schools Grover
c.. Bowman. According to the new
ruling every child who has 'tskipped'
a grade in the promotions from the
last school term to the present term
shall be placed back into the grade
INTO which he ordinarily would reach.
This action will be taken only where
it is found that the age of the child
does not qualify with the average ages
Of the pupils in the grades in which
he is now a member
Yearly numbers of children skip
CT AIDES, it being believed by the facu1-
ty that extra -cleverness and bright
ness which they possess over other,
children entities them to such a pro
motion. 1t has been universally found
that this skipping does not work
against the interests of the child.
In these days one years difference
in school makes a big difference in
many families. Certainly the one year
which the child gains through skip
ping in the grades makes a wonder
full difference in latter life. Not only
for these reasons are the parents in
ceused but also because they believe
it is unfair to the child in advancing
them to one grade and then form a
ruling denoting them a grade. AS
a consequence Eupt. Bowman is being
Eesieged on all sides by anxious par
ents who want TO know the why's and
wherefores of the latest rule.
