AT the meeting of the department Of
colleges, and secondary schools. State
Superintendent Stearres, explained the
methods and plan of issuing certificates
TO high school teachers. This was done
because OF the opposition which had de-
veloped to the existing plan, among
high school teachers. Mr.. Stearnes as
serted that the large number of kinds
of certificates were necessary because
of the great demand for high school
teachers and the necessity for securing
supply from so many sources,
Stearnes Tells why.
1t was thought best to issue certi-
fticate to each kind class and grade Of
high school teacher, not only to keep
the classes and grades distinct but to
form a basis for the elimination of some
of the lowest grades and more poorly
prepared teachers as the supply OF the
other grades became greater. He ex-
pressed the belief that II would be pos
sihle to eliminate some of these inferior
grades in the near future.
An interschoIastic debating league to
be composed OF high schools was de-
cided upon, and plan will be arranged
morning.
