Waukesha schools will not have ad |
ditional married women on the regular
teaching force as a result of a Teso
luton adopted unanimously by mem
bers of the board of education. The
action was taken when it was proven
conclusively that married women can
not be depended upon as can those
who have no household duties or other
affiliations so common to those who |
have given up their name. The reso
luton does not mean, however, that I
those at present on the teaching force
will be obliged to give up their posi-
tions. This new rule will not be I
counted against them when applying
for renewals of their contracts next
year, nor does the resolution apply to
widows. Substitutes who are married
will also be considered, but not on the
regular teaching force There are at
present eleven married women on the
teaching staff in the Waukesha
schools.
