TRANSFERS OF PUPILS.
Petition From School District No.
14-Opinion By Attorney
General.
A meeting of the county board of
education was held on Friday in the
office of County Superintendent of
Education Eugene S. Werts to hear
the petition from the local trustees
of school district No. 14 which in
&udes the Prosperity graded school.
The petition asks that all transfers
from surrounding districts be annull
5a.
'The county board is composed of
tug. S. Werts, S. J. Derrick and E.
6. Counts.
>The petitioners were represented
before the board by C. T. Wyche
in'a B. B. Schumpert.
The board heard the statement of
thre petitioners through their repre
sgAtatives but announced no decision
tintil they can get an opinion from
th.k attorney general on a question of
lav and this point was referred to
him, and the decision of the board
cnFthe matter will depend on the in
terpretation of the law made by the
attrney general.
It seems that the law says that lo
cal boards may grant transfers to
adjoining districts and ,those districts
shall receive them. And that a good
nany of the districts adjacent to No.
I4have been granting transfers and it
is crowding the school at Prosperity.
Prosperity has a fine school and is
very much in need of that new build
ing'and it is not wondered that those
districts adjacent should desire to
have their children attend this school
and it would be wel. to permit them
to do so if in so doing No. 14 could I
getherpropershareofthepublic fund.
The bigger this school the better for
the town. The county and the state
need more schools like the Prosperi
ty graded school and then have it ar
ranged so that all the- children in
reach could attend. The decision in
tis case will affect other schools and

Without Jurisdiction.
The county superintendent of ed
ucation has received the efollowing
reply from Attorney General Gun
ter:
Columbia, S. C.
November 19, 1904.
Eugene S. Werts. Esq..
Superintendent of Education,
Newberry. S. C.
Dear Sir: Replying to the com
munication from your county board
of education under date of Novem
u>Lr i8th, I beg to advise that this of
fice has recently expressed the opin
ion that the action of the boards ot
trustces in transferring students
from one district to ano'ier is re
viewable by the county board of ed
ucation: but I am disposed to think
that undcr the facts as stated in your
communication your board is with
out jurisdicfion now, for it seems
that the transfers have already been
made and accepted by the board of
trustees. In order that the matter
shall fall within the province of the
county board of education for re
view it would be necessary that some
notice of protest be made at the
time, and it is too late after the
boards have acquiesced in the trans
fers.
Yours very truly,
U. X. Gunter. Jr.,
Attorney General.
From this opinion the trustees
must make protest as soon as the
transfer is made.
The following is the law on the
subject if transfers:
"Sec. 1214. When it shall so hap
pen that persons are so situated as
to be better accommodated at the
school of an adjoining school dis
trict, wheth.er special or otherwise, the
board of trustees of the school dis
trict in which such persons reside
may transfer such persons for edu
cation to the school district in which
such school is located: and the trus
tees of the school district where the
school is located 'shall receive such
prsons into the school as though
the- residcd in the district."
There does not seem to be much
discretionary power in this section
on the part of the trustees of the dis
trict to which the pupils are trans
ferred.
