APPROVED STATE COURSES OF STUDY FOR
GRADES 1 T0 12

The school laws do not provide that any specific subjects be
taught in the common schools. Section 4384-26, Kentucky Statutes,
provides that:

“The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall prepare, or cause
to be prepared, and submit for approval and adoption and publication
by the State Board of Education minimum courses of study for the
different grades and kinds of common schools of the Commonwealth,
and regulations governing educational equipment of school buildings
and classrooms.”

There is now under way a comprehensive study of the courses
of study and curricula ofierings of the common schools. It will be
the major purpose of this study to recommend for the consideration
of the State Board of Education a complete reorganization of the
common school curricula. This study has not progressed to a point,
however, where recommendations can be made at this time. It is
necessary, therefore, that the State Board take action concerning the
course of study and the curricula for the common schools in order
that there may be a basis upon which the State Textbook Commission
may act in keeping with the textbook adoption law. (See Sections
4421a-86 to 47, Kentucky Statutes.)

The following courses o£ study are proposed for grades 1 to 8 of
the common schools. An effort has been made to arrange the pro-
grams for grades 7 and 8 in such a manner that the six-year high
school or the junior high school organization may be adopted by a
school district. It is recommended that the subjects starred (*) be
the core or required subjects to be taught in each grade throughout
the State. One or more of the other subjects may or may not be in-
cluded in the program of a particular school district. It is further
recommended that the core or required subjects be the only ones to
be purchased under the free textbook law for 1935-36.

RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE DIVISION

Standards for library service in the high schools of the state are

if these standards are made mandatory. (See Manual of Organ-
ization and Administration,'pp. 107—8.)

The amount of service of the librarian shall be:

classes) shall be provided in schools that have an enrollment of
from 100 to 300 pupils. A minimum of at least six semester
hours’ training in library science is essential.

classes) shall be provided in schools that have an enrollment
of less than 100 pupils. A minimum of at least six semester
hours’ training in library science is essential.

made mandatory:

shall be required to maintain an up-to-date accession record of
books purchased or acquired for the school library.

school library. '

c. Circulation records maintained by use of a card system.

ventory of books in the high school library shall be taken an-
nually or semi—annually. .

e. Card shelf-list. An up-to-date card shelf-list shall he
