The Board of Education has prepared printed application blanks to be used by those who desire to appear before it for examination.
These blanks are now ready, and can be procured by written application addressed to the Board of Education, 95 Falmouth St., Boston, Mass. No other form of application will be received.
This Board is authorized to send out twenty-one teachers annually. Although the examination will not be at all competitive, the Board will be obliged, all things being equal, to bestow the certificates with reference to the necessity for teachers in certain localities, notwithstanding the intention of the Board to make the question of the fitness of the applicant of paramount consideration, regardless of place of residence. The failure on the part of an applicant to receive a certificate will not necessarily imply any unworthiness.
