Must Take An Oath On School Directors In Pennsylvania
Debates over a new act require school directors to sworn oath before serving. The measure, debated in Pittsburgh and across the state, imposes penalties including forfeiture of state funds if violated, and authorizes oaths sworn before a justice or notary public with filings to the Department of Public Instruction. The Central Board notes the act becomes effective next year and applies to those elected next year, while existing directors may face questions about timing. Local boards in Riversid and Morey sur districts report recent officers elected and vacancies filled as June actions proceed.
