TALES OUT OF SCHOOL
By Bernice McCullar
State Department of Education
TV FOR AUTUMN — Mary
Grubbs, our program co-ordina
tor for television teaching, is
planning some wonderful courses
for your children this autumn.
Added to science, math, music
and languages will be Georgia
h ory. We have been operating
the Athens station for a year, and
will add the Way cross station this
fall. Two others in the future
are Pembroke and Pine Mountain.
A C. Eurich, of the Fund for the
Advancement of Education, says,
“Students learn as well or bet
ter by TV teaching as in the tra
ditional classroom. This is a case
of Mark Hopkins on one end of
the log and a half million stu
dents on the other.”
ARE YOUR CHILDREN READ
ING? — I hope your youngsters
are members of the library’s va
cation reading clubs — or are
reading on their own. Reading is
by far the most important part of
their education. John W. Gard
ner, president of the Carnegie
Corporation, says, “Some sub
jects are more important than
others. Reading is the most im
portant of all.”
NEW SALARIES — The State
Board of Education adopted a
new salary schedule that will
start Georgia’s new 4-year-de
gree teachers at $3400 state sa
lary this fall, and pay a top sa
lary of $5500 to a classroom
teacher with a 6 year certificate
and 9 years’ experience. That’s
state salary. You can add your
local supplements to that and
keep good teachers for your
children. (Some teachers also get
federal reimbursement, and|or
travel.
OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF
BABES: Little boy, saying good
bye to first grade teacher at
school closing, “I’m heading hot
legged for home. I got a new frog
in my back yard.”
WHAT THE NEGROES SAY —
You’ve been hearing and reading
about some things the Negroes
are complaining about in the
school program. One is that they
do not get their share of the
“M & O” (maintenance and op
eration) money sent out to the
198 school systems at $450 per
teacher. They want more janitors
in the Negro schools. They also
are pressing for a state-owned
and operated trade school, and
say that if one is not set up, Ne
groes will press for admittance
to the two -white state trade
schools at Clarkesville and Amer
icus. That is what Rev. L. H.
Pitts, Negro leader who was for
5 112 years secretary of the Geor
gia Teachers and Education Asso
ciation, told the State Board.
Here’s the answer: Os the 31 new
area trade schools in the plans
now, 11 are for Negroes. This
fall, there will be three Negro
trade schools in operation, at Sa
vannah, Columbus, and Albany.
As for the allotment of the M &
O money, your superintendent
and board will have to deal with
that. The State sends it out; they
decide how it will be used.
WHEN CAN HE START TO
SCHOOL? — We are always get
ting letters asking what age
Johnny has to be to start to
school. The law says he MUST be
in school 180 days a year between
his 7th and 16th birthday. But
local schools can decide when he
will enter, and when he must be
six to get into the first grade. The
State Board tried to pass a state
regulation on that two years ago,
and have the same date all over
the state, but there was so much
fuss-and-flurry about it that they
just left it to each school system.
Call your superintendent.
IT’S STILL AS THE CROW
FLIES — The recent legislation
voted to change our 1 112 mile bus
rule. We measure by radius. 1 112

L. C. Pruitt, W. H. Inman and
O. A. Thompson, Operators and Managers
miles from the schoolhouse, to
put state funds into hauling
children to school on one of our
nearly 5,000 school buses. The
legislators voted to change that
to measure round by the road.
The words were “by the nearest
practical route.” That would
scoop up about 50,000 more child
ren. Trouble is, it would also cost
another million and a half dol
lars — and there’s no provision
for THAT! We now budget about
13 1;2 million for transportation.
Our buses — with fine safety re
cords, and new S2OO a year raise
for bus drivers this year — bring
12 years of free education within
reach of every Georgia child,
from very near his own front
door.
LOOK WHO CAME TO SEE
US — Os all the hundreds of
visitors that stream through the
Department of Education daily,
jnone are more welcome than 7
state Future Farmer officers who
were here recently. They were
welcomed by Dr. Claude Purcell,
। state superintendent of schools,
।by Dr. M. D. Collins, superinten
dent emeritus; who knew some
relative or teacher of every one
of them, and by Dr. C. S. Hub
bard, assistant superintendent
who was Georgia’s first voca
tional ag teacher. The boys were
these: President Don Thompson,
Greenville; V. P.’s Hubert Bailey,
Dawsonville, Cliff Mobley, Brox
ton, and Lynn Reddick, Portal;
Secretary Corbitt Hunter, Sur
rency; Treasurer Julian Maxwell,
Whigham; and Reporter Maurice
McFalls, Cohutta. They were ac
companied by their executive se
cretary, Elton Dunn, whose of
fice is in the Department of Edu
cation in Atlanta. (Cliff, who
had told everybody proudly that
he was from Broxton and had
them ask, “Where is Broxton?”
decided that he would just save
trouble next time by saying that
he was from Coffee county. But
he picked the wrong time to do it
because the next person he met
was Dr. M. D. Collins, who knew
Georgia so well that he NEVER
has to ask where any place in
Georgia is. Dr. Collins asked,
“Where are you from?” “Coffee
county,” said Cliff. “Well, I used
to teach in BROXTON,” said
Georgia’s best beloved .man.)
GEORGIA’S OUT IN FRONT:
Georgia moved right ahead to use
educational TV for its children.
We have one channel operating
m Athens, a second in Waycross
to be ready by fall, and 2 others
planned. In the U. S., there are
3,000,000 pupils in 7500 schools
taught by TV.
TWELVE OF THE GREATEST
— Summer is a wonderful time
for your high school youngsters
to read some of these Dozen
Greats that they will be expected
to know when they get to college:
1. Thoreau’s Walden 2. Emerson’s
Essays 3. Hawthorne’s Scarlett
Letter 4. Melville’s Moby Dick
5. Stendahl’s The Red and the
Black 6. Jane Austen’s Pride
and Prejudice 7. Dicken’s David
Copperfield 8. Bronte’s Wuther
ing Heights 9. Thackeray’s Vanity
Fair 10. Chaucer’s Canterbury
Tales 11. Plato’s Republic and 12.
Homer’s Iliad.
WHEN THEY HAD TO BE IN
SCHOOL — Our Compulsory At
tendance Law in its present form
was enacted in 1945. Way back in
1887, Georgia children from 8 to
14 were expected to be in school.
In 1902, the age was changed to
7 to 14. Then in 1918, it was 7
to 16. You may be surprised to
know that several hundred par
ents in Georgia were hauled into
court last year to explain to a
judge why their children were
not in school. They can be fined
up to SIOO a day for keeping
children out without a valid ex
cuse.
