3rd Grade
4th Grade.
This year, the teacher went with a letter-grade. E's and G's. Explanation of the grades is on the back of the card.
5th Grade.
Apparently, Charlotte had a "condition" and missed the entire 4th quarter. And back to numeric grades.
6th Grade.
A healthy year with only 1/2 day absent.
"Parents should note carefully the standing of the child" with 08 noted above it.
7th Grade
8th Grade. Stamped "Diploma".
Charlotte moved on to Hancock High School, but I found no report cards, just this commendation:
Graduation Cards
A handwritten Graduation Program. It appears they put on a play. The play was "Forest Acres" by Fannie Barnett Linsky. The internet describes it as a "comedy in 3 acts". This speaks of the common use of plays in high school graduations in the 1920's. You can buy the book on Amazon. Whoever wrote the program down accidentally wrote "Catherine Reiser" as playing daughter Elizabeth Crockett who was already playing Mrs. Crockett. Charlotte's name has been pencilled in.
I hope Charlotte had some good summers.
i only know of one of my grade school report cards that still exists in the world, and i have it. it's so interesting to see such a large portion of charlotte's life summarized this way. i wonder what she'd think?
ReplyDeleteWell, she'd probably be horrified that her personal notes and cards were made public to the world, but I would hope she'd also appreciate that they've found a home and were thought to be of such interest.
ReplyDeleteHi, I love the pictures of the old report cards! I work for a software company that works with schools and I'd love to use one or two of the report card images in one of our videos. Do you mind?
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Zach
I don't mind at all. Help yourself. I'd love to see how you put them to use!
