Book Description
Excerpt from Digest of Laws Relating to Free Schools, Vol. 16: In the State of Delaware These examinations may be at such times and places as the Superintendent may appoint, having due regard to the necessities of the schools and the convenience of the teachers. Every applicant who is of good moral character, and who shall be found qualified to teach orthography, reading, writing, mental arithmetic, written arithmetic, geography, history of the United States, English grammar, elements of rhetoric, algebra, geometry, and natural philosophy, shall be recommended to the State Board of Education for a first grade certificate; and the said Board, approving the same, shall authorize and direct such certificate to issue, signed by the Superintendent, and countersigned by the President of said Board, and the certificate so issued shall be good for three years, unless sooner revoke by the Superintendent for cause, to be approved by said Board. Every applicant who is of good moral character, and who shall in examination, answer ninety per centum of all questions asked in orthography, reading, writing, mental arithmetic, written arithmetic, geography, history of the United States, and English grammar, shall receive, from the Superintendent, a second grade certificate, which shall be good for two years, unless sooner revoked for cause, to be approved by said Board. If any such applicant fail to answer ninety per centum of the questions asked in examination, in the branches mentioned for a second grade certificate, but shall answer at least sixty per centum thereof, he shall receive from the Superintendent a third grade certificate, which shall be good for one year, unless sooner revoked for cause. Any applicant having been refused a certificate may appeal to the State Board of Education. The Superintendent shall also keep an accurate list of all certificates granted by him, with the dates thereof, and the names of the persons to whom granted. The State Superintendent shall receive a salary of fifteen hundred dollars per annum, to be paid quarterly by the State Treasurer on warrants drawn by himself and marked correct by the State Auditor; but the State Auditor shall not mark such warrant correct when such Superintendent has failed to discharge his duties faithfully and to the best of his abilities.
