23 TEACHERS
ASK RELEASE
FOR 1922
Present Petitions to Superin-
tendent Bentley Asking Not
To Be Reelected for Work
Next Year.
CONSIDERED MONDAY

Twenfy-three teachers in the Rich
mond public schools have asked Sup
erintendent J. H. Bentley that they not
be reelected as instructors in their
respective positions for the next school
year.
The matter OF securing teachers
for the. public schools and recon-
mendations to be made by Superin
tendent Bentley were to be the prin
cipal features Of the school board
meeting, which was to have been held
at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon.
OF the total number Of teachers not
seeking re-appointment, two are sup
ervisors of instruction in all Of the
schools; five are high school teach
ers; five Garfield junior high school
teachers, and II are instructors in the
nine grade schools.
Teachers not candidates for re-
election this year total about the
same as last year. However, the res
ignations in both years are above the
number averaged in former years.
Scarcity of teachers in all parts of the
country is given as the reason.
Others May Leave
Notwithstanding the number having
already announced it their intentions
OF not returning to local positions for
the next school year, it is very prob
able that still other teachers are not
considering returning. This fact is
borne out by the usual practice in
other terms. Many do not wish to
deny themselves their present posi-
tions. but are, however, on the watch
for more advantageous offers.
Instructors who had announced that
election by the school board, UP to
Monday, are as follows:
