To TE SCunot CoMIIssIONEn OF
FAIRFIELD : The first regular nheet.
ing of the State 3ard of Examuiners
was hold May 1st and 2nd. The
following resolutions are taken from
the minutes of the Board
Resolved, That in those localities
in which the number of children do
siring to attOnd school is loss than
the minimlunm nuubor proscribed by
the various boards of trustees for the
establis}h:menut of schools, teachers I
should if po rsible be procured, the
Colpena:t.ionh in such cases to be
loss than that usually allowed to the
gra.le of certiiicato held by the
teachler.
Resolved, That the various school
filec(rs of this State be urged to so
cure servi es of th I-st com
p1)tent to:o.l,eS to instruct theo
c )lored chikdren, an .1 th.tt this ioard
hcIrtily COmmsnends the wlite teach
er who ba:0 horotofore engtaged in
their instru!NnJ.
ResolVed, Th.t Lhis U3Lvrd has re
ceived with gratification the en
cour.aging reports of the prgrs inl
education ma.de by the colored chiil
children in cortain portions of the
State, espei:dly in U.irloston.
The following rules, for the ex.
am iation of appicaLnts for the
posifla of teacher in the public
schools, weio adopted uinder the
authority given to the Sta to Board of
E uinlers ini sub1-divyiensf 2 and
3 of secton 5 of "an A.'t to alter
and amendl the School Law of South
CJarolina,"- approved March 22nd,
1878.
1 All exuninations be(for'o connly
boards of examiners imust h)o inl writ
ing. exeelpt examiunationms inl read ng,
and1( imust bo0 coniducted onl quetstionis
prepared b)y the SLate su perin tend

to) be p)ropated for etch of tho three
gradols.
2. The numb)er 10 to bo tihe mnx
imum mark, anid no aipplicant whose
average ait anf examinat.ion is less
than 8 on all branches sto recoivo
a certificate.
3. That at all examinations before
county boards, at least two members
of the board must be present.
4. That app)licants h~eoor county
boards shall be examinted in orthog
raphy, reading, wvriting, arithmetic,
geography, English grammar, his
tory of the United States and of this
State.
5. That applicants for teachers'
State certificate nmut appear before
the State Board of Examiners at the
regular meeting, which wvill b'e hold
in Columbia during the first weolk
in May, and the first woeok in Sop..
tember of each year, and thait in
addition to the branches of studyI
mentioned in the foregoing rule said
applicants must be examined in
algebra, natual philosophy and
physiology.
In accordance with tihe provisions
of rule 1, school commissioners will
be furnished with qinestions, before
each exambioMion, onl applicatio~n to
this ofilco. fThoe .questione Will lie
*ant in sedled emvelo]pesa wi"h
should be openM on 5the day 91f
examinat4ongn the presen3e et.
bar boen roeived from any sourco
whatever. These precautions should
bo observed to provent applicaente
fromu obtaining copies of the ques-,
Hioms beforo the examination, and
1lso from roc?oiviug assistal:co after
the! ex-1miation begins. The great
want in our public schools is for
b.wttor to.ehet's. Until training
schools for teachers can be estab
lishod, the State Board and the
:ounty boards must bo relied on to
securo competent instructiOr, and
for this reason great care
3hould be exercised in the oxamina
tions. I would especially urgo that
rn person b0 granted ia certificate
to,n aiition1 to othell requir
t,u'nts, has not the hii;lt moral quatli
ie'ntions which shoill ho possessed
uy every one who is entrusted with
the implortaut work of teaching the
youth of our State.
The school law gives to the State
Board of Examiners authority to
seleet a uniform series of text books
to ho used in the public sclools.
Thc books will be relected at the
next meeting of the Board, which
will ho held during the first week
in September, and it is hoped that
)y the beginning of the next school
yea:r thero will be in use, in all
:loumties in the S'ate, books well
td.ipted to the assistanee of teachers
mnd the instruction of pupils.
The Act to amend the school law
u now in the hands of the printor.
Dopies for the use of the school ofli
