TRE NASSAU POST, FRBtPORT, N. Y., FRIDAY, MAY U. 1918 Pa«« 8
POPILS IH GERMAN TO HAVE EXAMS
Board of Edacation at Freeport
Ccmider Matter at Tuesday
Night Meeting.
Nassau County Oversubscribes
Red Cross Qudta $241,501
The situation pertaininjif to Ger¬ man, which was recently cut from the course of study in the Freeport Hijjh School, followinjr a directit>n to the B«ard of Education by the annual district meetinjf, has not reached a conclu.sion, but correspondence which Superintendent Ward C. .Moon has had with Charles F. Wheelock, .As¬ sistant Commi«.<*ioner for Secondary EducaNtion, indicates that a satisfac¬ tory arranifement will be made.
The idea of the Freeport Board is to conserve the interests of the one- year nupils in (Jerm.tn, that they may take Resrents' examinations. There is a rule with the state authorities that pupils studyinjr any forei^rn lanjrunjre niU'*t do 80 for two years biafore they may obtain any credit counts. The P"reeport pupil.s who have studied but iif.u year will lose that time if they are not permitted to take the .June ex¬ aminations in German,
At a meeting of the school board on Tuesday evening' a letter from .As¬ sistant Commissioner Wheelock was read. He sujf^e.sted lo Superintendent Moon that (ierman jiupils who bejfan their second year in .lanuary, lOlH, be admitted to tho .June examinations and said that their papers \v.>ul(l he fiven very cart?fiil (¦r,:isi(l> I'ation. The .\ct- \ng Commi.'sioner intimatecl that he could not definitely promise a varia¬ tion from thi.'< rule.
In view of the fact that the state is making intniiry frum Superintend¬ ents nnd Principals conccrniiis,'- the stat^is of (icrman in their school.s, and pendimr n <le(i.sion from -Albany, the locfl Iniard decided to not take any definite action, but to continue correspondence as the situation war¬ rants to aid the one-year pupils.
