Abstract:

Through the efforts of State Representative John W. Umstead of Orange County, the 1943 General Assembly added a ninth month to the public schools. Educators feel that the longer term is a more efficient means of educating students and that the cost of re-teaching retarded pupils would be substantially reduced.
