Graduates Of Common School.
Concluded from page H.

There are about four distinct epochs
in the history of public education in
Kentucky. One provision in the pres
ent system that is destined to render
q great service to the people Of rural
districts is thf provisions for County
High School. The passage Of County
High School law in 1903 was az at
tempt to extend high school privileges
to the boy and girl in the rural districts
who were yet Of school age but could
reap no further benefits from their
home school. In a measure this law
met the condition.
Crittenden county, since 1909, has
offered to all common school graduates
of school age, free tuition in the Mari
on High School, high school which
ranks as fast class, and on the accred-
tied list with the State University and
College Associations If the State.
During these seven years Of County
High School privileges extended to the
four or five hundred graduates NOT
more than fifty or sixty availed them.
selves Of the opportunity. During my
visits to the schools this year have
counted as many as FIVE graduates to
the school going over the eighth grade
work again. or presumably so, while
in reality they were killing time, The
regular work Of the course was old
and uninteresting to them and time
killing was the only available occupa.
ton. ! am not intimating that this
class Of children was disobedient or un.
ruly, but they are a burden to the
school. They serve to discourage the
eighth grade pupils under them; they
over work the teacher; they consume
the time that rightly belongs to the
under graduate; but worse still they,
themselves, are being retarded, helC
back, stinted in their own work fol
progress. They are bright, energetic,
hopeful and vigorous, just the right
age to form correct habits and confirm
the traits Of character that were begur
during their common school days.
Why do these conditions exist? Why
do we not take advantage Of this lib
eral provision Of the county high school
law? There is coming time wher
the school age in Kentucky will be re-
duced from twenty to eighteen years
or less. and this indifference to schoo
privileges on the part Of parents anC
guardians are going to assist in bring
ing this law about.
There Is an idea prevalent among
the rural districts that q common
school education is sufficient for the
country boy or girl. / will grant tha,
II the entire citizenship were that vel
equipped for better living that al
would be better, but we (the teachers)
are going to give him this much Of the
work by the time he is fourteen years
old. What are you going to do with
him during the next six years? There
is no place for him but the High
School.
