TEACHERS. RULE XXXIII. The teachers in the public schools of the State may dismiss all pupils under eight years of age after a four hours' session each day, or, where that is not practicable, may allow to pupils of that age recesses of such length that the actual confinement in the schoolroom shall not exceed three hours and a half per day. RULE XXXIV. Teachers shall exercise watchful care and oversight over the conduct and habits of the pupils, not only during school hours, but also at the recesses and intermissions, and while going to and returning from school. RULE XXXV. It is expected that a strict and wholesome discipline will be constantly maintained in all public schools; but teachers are cautioned against displays of ill temper and undue severity in the schoolroom. RULE XXXVI. In any case of misconduct or insubordination, when the teacher deems it necessary for the good of the school, he may suspend a pupil, and shall immediately notify the directors of the district thereof. The directors shall forthwith meet and consider the matter, and if they approve the action of the teacher and think the case calls for further punishment, they may expel the pupil from the school. RULE XXXVII. Teachers in the public schools shall, to the utmost of their ability, inculcate in the minds of their pupils correct principles of morality, and a proper regard for the laws of society, and for the government under which they live. RULE XXXVIII. Every public school teacher shall give vigilant attention to the temperature and ventilation of the schoolroom and shall see that the doors and windows are open at each intermission for the purpose of changing the atmosphere of the room. He shall require his pupils to take proper exercise, and shall encourage healthful play at recesses, but he shall strictly prohibit all dangerous and immoral games and amusements. RULE XXXIX. Teachers shall have the right, and it shall be their duty, within reasonable limits, to direct and control the studies of their pupils; to arrange them in proper classes, and to decide, subject to these rules, what and how many studies each shall pursue; provided, the said direction and control of studies and arrangements of classes shall be in accordance with the course of study prescribed by the State Board of Education. RULE XL. Teachers shall follow the State course of study prescribed by the State Board of Education. RULE XLI. Every teacher in the public schools shall carefully note, in a register prepared for that purpose, the attendance, standing, and classification of pupils; a copy of his programme; the point in the State course of study where each class began and closed, and such other data as the State Board of Education may require. RULE XLII. Every teacher in the public schools shall prepare, at the beginning of each term, a programme of daily exercises and recitations and post the same in a convenient place in the schoolroom for the benefit of the school. RULE XLIII. Every teacher in the public schools shall be provided by the board of directors with a school register, in which he shall carefully note the attendance and standing of his pupils, and other data prescribed by the State Board of Education. At the close of the school the teacher shall deposit the same with the clerk of the district, who shall preserve the same, along with the other books and papers belonging to his office, for inspection. RULE XLIV. Whenever the unexcused absences of any pupil during any term shall amount in the aggregate to seven days, he shall be reported to the directors, and the teacher may suspend him until the opinion of the directors can be taken. For this purpose an unexcused absence or tardiness for half a day or less, or for more than one hour at any one time, shall be deemed a half day's absence; and such absence or tardiness for more than half a day at one time shall be reckoned as an absence for a whole day; provided, that boards of directors may establish a less time of absence or tardiness as cause for suspension or expulsion, which shall be deemed valid in compliance with the powers of directors, as set forth in section 102 of the Oregon School Laws. RULE XLV. The names of those pupils of the public schools of this State who, at the close of any term, shall be found to have been neither absent nor tardy during the term, and who have maintained correct deportment, shall be inscribed by the teacher upon suitable rolls of honor and displayed in some prominent and safe place in the schoolroom. RULE XLVI. In all public schools in this State the teachers shall require of their pupils regular stated exercises in composition and declamation. PUPILS. RULE XLVII. No pupil shall be allowed to retain connection with any public school unless provided with books, slates, and other things required to be used in the classes to which he is assigned; but no pupil shall be excluded for this cause unless the teacher shall have given one week's previous notice to his parents or guardians of the articles needed. Indigent pupils may be supplied with books, etc., at the expense of the district, if the directors so order. RULE XLVIII. Pupils affected with contagious diseases shall not be allowed to remain in any of the public schools. RULE XLIX. Every pupil is required to attend school punctually and regularly; to conform to the regulations of the school, and to obey promptly all the directions of the teacher; to observe good order and propriety of deportment; to be diligent in study, respectful to teachers, and kind and obliging to schoolmates; to refrain entirely from the use of profanity and vulgar language, and to be clean and neat in person and clothing. RUIE L. That portion of these rules and regulations pertaining to the duties and privileges of teachers and pupils shall be read and explained by the teacher, in the presence of the school, at least once during each school term.
