EXTENSION OR RENEWAL OF CERTIFICATES.

A Virginia State Teacher's Certificate which expires this summer
may be renewed by the State Board of Education. The requirements
for renewal are as follows:

1. Applicants must read five books on the Teachers' Reading
Course during the life of the certificate to be renewed.

2. In addition to the first requirements, applicant must satisfy one
of the following conditions:

(a) Take an examination on the book in Elementary Education included
in the Reading Course for the year in which the certificate expires.
This examination is prepared by the State Board of Education.
Those attending the Summer Session who expect to take this examination
should notify the Dean of the Summer Quarter not
later than July 20th, if they attend the first term; if they are registered
for the second term, they should notify the Dean not later
than August 20th.

(b) Attend a Summer School for thirty days during the life of
the certificate and complete a course of study consisting of two
subjects in Education or advanced academic subjects. The program
must be approved by the Dean of the Summer Quarter.

A copy of the Reading Course for 1920-1921 may be obtained from
the State Board of Education, Richmond, Virginia.

Work taken in the Summer Quarter counts for certificate credit
or the renewal of certificates in most of the Southern States. Teachers
from States other than Virginia desiring such credit should
communicate with the Dean of the Summer Quarter or their own
Superintendent of Public Instruction before registering.
