and desiring to teach in another
must receive a new certificate from
the county superintendent of the
county to which lie may go or secure
tne endorsement of the certificate al
ready held
21 Old certificates Invalid When
A county certificate granted under
the old law will be valid only for the
term for which it was originally
granted After October 1 1905 a
county superintendent can not legally
renew any county certificate issued
under the old law Neither can he
by the endorsement of a certificate
extend its life beyond the time for
which it was originally granted
2 The five essentials When a
first second or third grade county
certificate granted under the old law
expires the homer tnereoi in oruer
to secure a certificate under the new
law will be required to take an ex
amination before the state examin
ing board in the following five essen
tial subjects reading arithmetic
geography grammar and history
After an applicant has taken the ex
amination in the five essential sub
jects and received passing grades the
state examining board will accept the
remaining passing grades as shown
by the certificate held making them
state grades for the first certificate
under the new law Provided
First That teachers engaged in edu
cational work whether teaching or
attending school who have complied
1 with the requirements as to reading
circle work attendance at the county
institute and educational meetings
and who have been granted certifi
cates since July 1 1903 may have
the grades shown on such certificates
validated by the state superintendent
I and made state grades except in
the case of the five essentials as pro
vided in this Rule 22 and except as
governed by Rule 10 upon the re
quest of the county superintendent
of the county in which such person
applies for a certificate This pro
vision shall continue in full force
and effect to and including the reg
ular examination in August 1907
Provided Second All teachers

ed by the state superintendent at
least six weeks will be required to
take examination in Reading and

more attendance at such a summer

dent will be taken in lieu of examina
tion in three essentials Such
attendance will not be taken for
granted in advance There must be
a bona fide attendance before credit
is given All other grades now held
meeting the requirements of Rule 10
will be certified to the state superin

proved by the county superintendent
This proviso was made and adopt
ed at Geneva1 January 25 in -a con
ference with the county superinten
dentof Clay F411more Nuckolls Sa
line and Thayer counties The
reasonableness of such a proviso is
self evident

ence with the county superintendents

of such a rule is self-evident
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
State of Nebraska Department of
Public Instruction Lincoln March

To County and City Superinten
dents High School Principals and
Teachers of Nebraska
It seems necessary to give an ex
position of our ruling relative to
summer school attendance and cred
its therefor as announced in our cir
cular letter of January 30 and also
to pass upon the minimum require
ments for approved summer schools
First All schools established by
the state and all schools recognized
as accredited institutions and author
ized to grant teachers certificates
under the law of the state are hereby
approved summer schools
Second No school will be approv
ed with a less number in the faculty
than five first class instructors whose
minimum qualifications must be at
least a first grade county certificate
in force The term must be at least
thirty days of actual school work
No credit will be granted any teacher
at any summer school on less than
thirty days actual attendance No
summer school will be approved on a
less equipment than our best four
year high schools No summer school
will be approved that ddes not main
tain -a model rural -school under the
supervision of a first class instructor
at least two weeks No school will
be approved in any county without
first having the approval of the coun
ty superintendent of such county and
submitting to this department an

tled to get everything she

plication for approval at least thirty
days before the opening of the term
of school which application must set
forth the names of the instructors
their scholarship their experience
and the time each is to devote to the
work giving also the equipment and
the buildings in which such summer
school is to be held
Where possible this department
urges upon teachers to attend the
longer term in the established
schools rather than the shorter term
at the temporary schools Time is
an element in education It will
be held by this department that
all teachers who attend a summer
term of ten weeks this year devot
ing sixty days to actual school work
have met the requirements of the
law going into force September 1
1907 requiring twelve weeks as the
minimum normal training for a first
grade county certificate
As stated in our amendment to
rule 22 in our circular of January
CO a teacher certificated under thf
old law who attends a summer
school approved by the state superin
tendent at least six weeks nii
have all of her old grades areepw d
upon approval by the county super in
tendent of the proper county and
made state grades except in the fne
essentials Upon such attendance
the only examination required in Un
live essentials will be in Reading
and one other of the five essentials
at her selection with the advice and
consent of the county superintendent
of the proper county Six weeks or
more attendance at such school and
creditable work done this summei
in the other three of the five essen
tials approved by the county super
intendent will be taken in lieu of an
examination in these three essentials
It seems necessary to interpret what
is meant by creditable work It is
this A written review will be given
in each of these three essentials
based upon five questions selected
from lists furnished this department
by the various approved summer
schools The grades obtained on this
review and the class record of each
teacher after beinc srraded and av
eraged by the proper instructor of the
various schools will be the grade
granted to such teacher provided
that such review papers must be for
warded to this department for in
spection and approval by our state ex
amining committee This depart
ment will reserve the right to raise
lower or reject any grade obtained
on such review for proper cause In
Reading and the other of the five
essentials the regular examination
will be required
It seems that some have a misun
derstanding of our new rule No 24
announced in our circular letter of
January 30 relative to those who
have never taught
In our circular letter of December
S it was stated We believe the time
is at hand when no certificate need
be issued to anyone with less than a
ThLStft WshscLo1 education
This will be on an average two veir
more scholarship than heretofore
