 Higher Plane

l Standards of new requirements for teaching certificates for Alaska schools are to be raised, effective with the beginning Of the next school year, it was announced to- day by w. K. Keller, Territorial | Commissioner of Schools. Tho new standards will conform to those
 ,o- ed rv the Hc7rd of Education of the State of Washington and .uaae effective september l, last.
 Our law requires us to base our standards for teachers on those of l Washington, and in order that the long existing harmonious relations between Alaska's public school sys- tenn and Washington States aduca- tional institutions may be con- tinued, it is necesary fer us to keep pace with that States re- quirements for teaching MT. Kel- Ter said.
 New Standards Outlined Until this year, tWo-year course in normal school was all that was required of teacher for elementary schools, and for junicr nigh and high schools, four years in a college or university. Effec- tive September l. last, Washing ton raised it's standard to require one quarter additional work for both elementary and high schools for 1881, two quarters additional fer 1882, and three quarters addi- tional for 1883.
 "The Department of Education in Alaska will require that teach CTS in the accredited schools in the Territory meet the requirements for certification set by the Uni vers.sy Of Washington in order that our harmonious relations with that school may be continued MT Keller said "Accreditaticn of sec cndary schools in Alaska has car- lied with it privileges of having graduates of those institutions ad- mitted to the University on the same basis as graduates of accredl- ted high schools in that State. The Territorial school law further spe- cifies that in the accreditatson ot I.schools, the Commissioner of Eiu- cation shall be guided by the sSan- dards set by the above named in- ztitution."
