The fol lowing is a letter from Mr. James E. Ilillman, Director of Certification, explaining just what is necessary to renew or keep a State Certificate in force. Raleigh, April 11, 1927. To County and City Superintendents and Principals of Accredited High | Schools: I Gentlemen : I On February 15th, 11)26, I sent I you a letter pointing out certain ; changes in tht? Certification Regula j tions. At this time, I am again call ing your attention to those changes i and am making such modifications as | may be necessary* in order to inform I you of the regulations effective lor the school 1927-28. 1. The graduates of an accredited high school will need credit for one six week summer school to qualify for a State certificate. Credit for one summer school unit will give a Provisional Elementary Certificate; without the summer school credit the j only certificate one could qualify for would be the County Second Grade. 2. Those tdachers who begin to raise their certificates in the summer of 1927 or thereafter, will be expect ed to have credit for a year's work or at least thirty semester hours to raise the certificate one class. Teach ers who have any credit at that time toward a certificate of higher grade may complete the raise under the four summer school plan. 3. All beginning high school teach ers certificated for the school year 1927-1928 must have credit for three years standard college work with a Bracej ip and iyour bit* *^S -m. I don't want to bore you, says Bill the ? , ^ Builder ? but I would ( like to drill this into your mind. There will never be a better time to build a house ? a garage ? a store ? a public building ? a b arn ? -a fence ? a chicken coop ? and a reputation for having good common sense than right now ! And the best way to prove you have the latter is to buy your building matenal from ! CHEROKEE MANUFACTURING CO. j % " THERE'S A MATERIAL DIFFERENCE" -j t Phone 95 Murphy, N.

One i who has credit for 12 semester hours j in Education will be issued the Class | B Certificate, but without the profes- ' sional credits the class C will be is sued. Tht? Class C Certificate may be raised to the Class B by securing the necessary credits in Education. 4. A teacher who now holds, or who has held a One-Year Temporary certificate but who holds, or who has held, within the past two years (1925 26 and 1026-27) a Provisional A Cer ! tificate, may have the certificate val idated with a statement from the sup erintendent that she has been employ | ed in his school system for 11)27-28. i | 6. A teacher who holds or has I held, the Provisional B Certificate, but who has never held a Provisional I A or One-Year Temporary Certificate j may secure the Provisional A with | credit for one county summer school | unit, as heretofore; without the sum mer school credit, the certificate re verts to the County Second Graie. 7. A graduate of a non-standard I high school, who secures credit for one county summer school u: i:, may ; be issued the Provisional A Ccrtifi- 1 1 cate as heretofore, but without the j summer school credits no Certificate! will be issued. Note: Teachers who held non-scan- j (laid certificates prior to th, school i year 1925-26 but who did n< teach in 1925-26 or 1926-27 will be i eld to the same summer school requirements! ?as heretofore, o. gr : the One-Year! Temporary Certificate renewed with credit for one county summer school unit: the Provisional A raised to a I One-Year Temporary Certificate with ! credit for one county summer school unit: the Provisional B raised to a ! Provisional A with credit for no coun ty summer school unit; and without the sumn.er school credits, the certi ficates revert to the next class. 8. A teacher who holds a Pro i visional Elementary Certificate issued I upon an expired Elementary 13 or up , on standard high school graduation j without summer school credits will not be reissued that certificate for ! the school year 1927-28 without eith i er securing the necessary credits for ! an Elementary B, or the credits neces sary for a Provisional Elementary un- j der present regulations. This means ( that it will be necessary f?r such a j teacher to attend summer school for i at least six weeks if she expects to i . qualify for a certificate fo? that I school year.
