Old Report Cards

Report Cards from 1944 to 1954 

 

All my report cards were saved in one of my early scrap books. They gave me an insight of what kind of student I was. It seemed I was always described as being a poor reader and speller. I remember how shy and terrified I was during those early years.

Grade One 'Lorraine's reading will improve as her experience with language widens. Like the other girls, she is not gifted in language. They all need to read more. Art talent is good'.

Grade Two 'Lorraine is doing very good work. Her reading could still be improved' : 'Lorraine could raise her marks by extra studying' and 'she is doing good work'. 

Grade Three 'Lorraine's literature mark was a surprise to me as she ordinarily does good work' and 'Lorraine is a splendid student' and 'Lorraine has passed to grade five with honours'. 

Grade Four  'Lorraine's attitude to her work is excellent. Her progress is fair' and 'Lorraine takes an interest in her work. She is very weak in reading, any reading at home will help'.

Grade Five Lorraine's attitude towards her work is satisfactory. She needs to pay more attention to her reading' and 'Lorraine is an average student'.

Grade Six  'A very good student' and 'Doing find work'. 'Lorraine is a very good student. Her trouble in spelling is a handicap. She should give spelling more time and attention'.

 After that the teachers did not write any comments.
