many Of the teachers had been
certified by other States but had
been unable to obtain certifi-
cation from the State Depart
ment of Education because Of
Maryland's stiff requirement OF
80 academic hours of education
courses.
Maryland, DR.. Prince added
is the only State which does not
give reciprocity on out-of-State
Identification.
He said that the area teaching
situation was probably as good
as that Of any other. community
where comparable growth had
been experienced. DR.. Prince
added that Chicago uses many
teachers with only high school
education.
I'VE say we require 80 hours
OF education courses, then we
employ a teacher with three
hours and tell her to get the
remainder--within the next 20
years." she added.
Board Chairman Helen Scharf
said she felt 1t was time for
State authorities and educa-
tional, groups to make "a real
istic re-appraisal" Of the certi-
flcation question.

The capital budget request
would finance 1903 new elemen-
tary school classrooms and l79
new high school rooms.
The county's largest school
construction budget earmarks
$8.8 million for secondary school
buildings. The remaining $3.4
million will go for elementary
school construction-if DR.. Nor
ris' recommendations are ac-
copied by the Board of Educa-
ton and the county council.
Last year the council oppro-
priated $8.5 million.
Two 48-Room Schools
The biggest slices of the con-
struction fund are tagged for
two 48-room secondary schools
in the Kensington- Wheaton and
eastern suburban areas Of the
county
DR.. Norris asked $2.6 million
for the proposed Springbrook
high school in Silver Spring and
$2.4 million for the proposed
Newport Junior high school in
Wheaton. Each will handle
l 200 students.
The next-largest request is for
$584,000 for construction Of a
425-student Kensington junior
high school. followed by $486. 900
for a proposed elementary school
at Gaithersburg.

He recommended also a seven
room addition to the Poolesyille
High School, which he described
as very necessary" If integra-
ton is to become effective in
that area by 1858.
Yearly Increase Of 5000
DR.. Norris budget request
cited migration into Montgom-
cry County during the last sew
'eral years as the major cause
for an enrolment increase Of
almost 5000 pupils each year.
"A projection for the next five
years shows that the rate Of In
crease will not lessen" the re-
port adds.
DR.. Norris said the Board OF
Education has "just about been
able TO keep pace" with the in
crease in school enrolment. lie
blamed the present deficiency
which has resulted in double
sessions in some schools on 1.-THE
great shortage of classrooms at
the elementary level" present
five years ago. During the FIVE
year period from 1950-55. the
report points out, county appro-
priations and State and Federal
grants have amounted to $47.8
million, with the county con-
tributing IS per cent.
Costs to Rise
He warned that an increase
of 1900 secondary school stu
dents to a total Of 10000 by 1860
will hike construction costs per
pupil since secondary school
buildings costs run higher than
do elementary.
At present. the 78-page budget
request continued, about one out
of every five Of the county's pop
ulation is a public school stu
dent. This ratio is expected to
rise to 22.5 per cent by 1860.
At yesterdays session the
board gave the go-ahead signal
to the county's first prefabricated
school structure. A 10-room adj
dition to the long-overcrowded
Viers Mill Elementary School will
be built as soon as an Indiana
firm specializing in such build
ings presents acceptable plans.
