SUMMER SCHOOLS
FOR TEACHERS
(By Associated TreSS)

Frankfort, Ky, March Sum
mer schools for teachers will b'
placed in every county i'll tho
state if a plan just broached tt
county superintendent by State
Superintendent George Colvin, is
adopted. The plan is designed to
relieve expected pressure on the
state nornals and the University
uof Kentucky as a result Of the
laws passed by the 1920 lcgisla-
t,rre requiring higher qualifca
tions for teachers.
The plan contemplates the use
of school buildings and facilities
throughout the state with conpe-
tent professors i'll charge. Teach
ers who take the prescribed
courses will be given full credit
the same as if they had attended
the regular summer session of a
normal school.
The minimum number of stu
dents for establishment of SUM
mer school, according to Super
intendent Colvin, probably would
be about fifty. They would re-
ceive high school and profession
al training and the last week
would absorb the usual institute
week, making unnecessary at
tendance at innual institute at
a different time.
Not only does the superintef-
dent suggest that such schools be
asked for but he also urges that
salary schedules be designed to
take cognizance of attendance at
these schools. He also calls at
tention to the fact that in North
Carolina last year a series of so
such schools were held with an
attendance of 1000 students.
