SESSION OF 1916-'17
10. Under the present law, which became effective June 11, 1911,
only one county certificate (second grade) may be issued to the same
individual. If a person has obtained a second grade county certificate
in one county since June 11, 1911, he may not obtain another county
certificate in any county.
11. An applicant may take examination in the seventeen (17)
subjects prescribed for a first grade certificate, the seventeen (17)
in connection with second grade, or twenty (20) in connection with
first grade subjects prescribed for a permanent primary certificate,
or the twenty-five (25) subjects prescribed for a State permanent
certificate at one time and pay only one fee.
12. Persons holding valid State certificates may take examinations
in one or more additional subjects at one time for the purpose
of building to a higher grade certificate. Examinations in all the
prescribed additional subjects required for the higher grade certificate
applied for must be completed before the expiration of the
certificate upon which the applicant is building.
13. An applicant may not complete the examinations in the building
process for a certain grade certificate, and at the same time take
examinations in a part of the additional subjects for the purpose of
building to the next higher grade certificate.
14. An applicant may build upon State certificates only. A second
grade certificate may be built upon for either a first grade or a permanent
primary certificate; a first grade certificate may be built upon
for either a permanent primary or a State permanent certificate; and
a permanent primary certificate may be built upon for a State permanent
certificate.
1I. The law does not provide that an applicant may build on a
permanent primary certificate to a first grade certificate. If the
applicant wishes to build to a permanent certificate upon a permanent
primary certificate, the work must be done within the first six
years after the issuance of the permanent primary certificate.
16. A first or second grade certificate may be built to a certificate
of higher grade at any time before its expiration.
17. A certificate issued by the State Department of Education as
a result of work done in the State Normal School or in a college
or university of the first class may be built upon in the same manner
as a certificate obtained in a regular examination. The same
average will be required on the additional subjects as for the certificate
desired. For example, a person who holds a State normal second
grade certificate may build to a four-year first grade certificate by
passing a successful examination and making a general average of 75
and below 85 on the six prescribed additional subjects, and to a sixyear
first grade certificate by making a general average on the six
additional subjects of 85 or above. The same method applies in
building upon a first grade certificate to either a permanent primary
or State permanent certificate.
18. An applicant is permitted to build one time only on a valid
certificate to one of higher grade. In other words, when an applicant
has completed the building process and has secured a higher grade43
