Schools to Extend Term Increases in County Funding
The state board of education, after a 1905 funding rise from 800,000 to 1,000,000 dollars, urged counties to lengthen the school term from five to six months wherever feasible and to raise teacher salaries where possible. The board avoided a mandate, promoting a recommendation tied to available funds, with many counties planning longer terms and higher pay as convicts’ hire money shifts. The panel included Governor Terrell and other state officials, and routine business followed.
