Sec. 7766-4. In order to ascertain whether applicants for age and
schooling certificates have satisfactorily completed the school work
prescribed in section 7766, General Code, the board of education of
any city school district may appoint a juvenile examiner who shall
receive such compensation as may be fixed by the board of education.
When such a juvenile examiner is employed no such certificate shall
be granted by the superintendent of schools of the district unless
the juvenile examiner has certified that he has examined the child
and that the child has passed to his satisfaction the grade test as
provided by section 7766, General Code, provided, however, that if a
child in the opinion of said juvenile examiner is below the normal
in mental development so that he cannot with further schooling and
due industry pass such test, such fact shall be certified to by said
examiner and the superintendent of schools shall grant the child an
age and school certificate printed on yellow paper with the words
"Retarded-Schooling not Standard" written, printed or stamped
diagonally across the face; and provided, further, that if the
juvenile examiner is satisfied that the standard of any school is
sufficiently high, he may accept the records thereof as showing that
a child has passed the required test. In case no juvenile examiner
is employed the superintendent of schools may proceed and determine
in like manner; if after proper tests he determines that a child is
below normal in mental development to the extent specified above, he
shall grant such a "retarded" age and schooling certificate. If a
child who desires an age and schooling certificate is granted a
"retarded" certificate but secures only a limited health
certificate; the word "limited" shall be written or stamped across
the face of the "retarded" certificate and the limited "retarded"
certificate shall be on yellow paper; in which case the certificate
shall show to what employment it is limited.
