We herewith publish two letters
which come to ub through the office
of county superintendent of schools,
Mrs. Shurte. One is regarding the
issuance of professional teacher's
certificates of merit. Both letters
are, or should be of deep Interest to
the school teachers of Morrow coun
ty and for that reason they have been
handed to the Gazette-Times for pub
llcatiou. They follow:
February, 12, 1917.
To County Superintendents:
This, department is Interested in
having the teachers throughout the
State meet the requirements for the
professional teacher's certificate.
The certificate is issued without cost
to those applicants who meet the re
quirements established by this De
partment. We believe that much
professional growth will come to the
teachers through the efforts put
forth to earn this certificate.
We have today in Oregon some
teachers who go from county to
county after but a year's residence in
each, and who fall to give the right
service In every district where they
go.
The profp3sonal certificate Is a
guarantee that a teacher is interest
ed in her work, and that she is pro
gressive. Other things being equal
school boards should give preference
to the teacher holding this certifi
cate. This action on the part of the
school board would tend to eliminate
those teachers who are not Interested
In their work and who do not care to
make additional preparation from
year to year for the benefit of the
districts and the children whom they
are to serve.
Very sincerely yours,
J. A. CHURCHILL
Supt. Public Instruction.
