The best state school systems in

This is a large Increase over the
previous year.
Change in Course OF study.
The course Of study is being gradu-
ally changed so that pupils may be
promoted from the seventh grade to
the high school This is the school
system Of the state Of Texas and FL
Paso has been the last to fall in line
with the organization OF the state
public school system in this respect.
Many states have eight grades pre-
ceding the high school, but such
states generally provide for a public
school age beginning at six years
Where a child can enter the public
schools at the age Of six. he reaches
where set at IA years, after eight
years in the grades. However. in
Texas the state law provides that q
child shall enter the first grade nor
mally at the age OF seven Eight
years after that age unduly prolongs
experience OF city school systems in
other states as we'll as in all Texas
cities IS that a child at the age OF Il
can normally have acquired as much
educational advancement in the
seven years previous as he would II
started in school at the age Of six
instead. OF seven and so given eight
years previous TO high school Texas
city high schools have as high
scholarship standards as high schools
in states with eight grades before
high school, and rank as high with
universities.
All grade schools in FL Paso end
with the seventh grade anyway, be-
cause the eighth grade is taught in
the high school building. In fact
children in the eighth grade have FOR
four years had only three subjects
that were below the high school and
have been regularly taking one or
two subjects Of regular high school
work in connection with their three
eighth grade subjects taught IN the
same building This makes the
change to the ssven grade plan very
easy as only the work OF eighth
