JTrTT IMPORTANT TO SCHOOL DIREC
TORS AND TAX PAYERS—The fol
lowing decision of the Superintendent of
Public Instruction is of great iinportanee to
tax-payers as well as directors, as violation
of the law upon the subject will deprive dis
tricts of the State appropriation, and subject
Directors to severe penalties:
DEPARTMENT OF PUB. INS., 1
llarrisburg, Pa., Dec. 1, 1871). J
There is but one time in the year when di
rectors can adopt a now series of text books
for the schools under their charge, or change
old ones, and that is between the time of
electing teachers and the opening of the
schools. Section 23, Act of M: y 1.1854, says :
" That immediately after the annual election
of teachers in each school district of the state,
and before the opening of the schools for the
ensuing term, there shall be a meeting of the
directors or controllers and teachers of each
district; at which meeting, the directors or
controllers shall decide upon a series of school
books, in the different branches to be taught
during the ensuing school year; which books,
and no other, shall be used in the schools of
the district during said period."
Such is the law, with this exception, that
books cannot now he changed more frequent
ly than once in three years.
