MAKE HISTORY OF PUPILS
Record of Work Will Aid
in Many Ways

A card index system which will place
at the finger tips of the superintendent
the entire school history of each pupil,
Is being installed in the Owosso schools
under the direction of E. j. Whitman.
superintendent. 1t Is known as the
National School Record, and is recon.
mended by the National Educational
Association.
The system consists of three cards for
each pupil, two of which will be In
possession Of the teacher and the third
kept on file by the superintendent, On
the smaller of the two cards kept by the
teacher will appear the name and birth.
place of the pupil, the name, address
and occupation of the father, and the
date of discharge from school on one
side. On the other side will appear
the date of admission to school. age.
grade, teachers name, the days present,
health, conduct and scholarship of the
student. This smaller card is the yearly
record of the student. while the larger
of the two cards has space for daily
record Of the above subjects, which is
condensed and placed on the yearly
record, or the smaller card. The yearly
record is on file with the superintep.
dent at all times, and at the end of each
school year the daily record is also
placed on file with the superintendent.
All records are filed alphabetically.
As the pupil advances from grade to
grade, the teachers records of the years
previous go with him, and as he pro.
crosses through the various grades his
record is accumulating. If he should
move to another city and enter school,
he is entitled to take the record cards
with him.
One Of the most significant advan-
tages of this system is that 1t is an
index to the pupils progress in school.
If pupil does not progress. a study of
these records will reveal the reason.
whether it is poor health, failure to
attend school regularly or he IL slow to-
learn Another big advantage is that
when pupils enter q new grade at the
beginning Of the school year. the
teacher has on these cards their entire
school history prior to that time, and
by study of the card of each pupil
gains knowledge that will be invaluable
to her In dealing with and in teaching
the children.
The system was in use in Gladstone,
where Mr.. Willman has been superin-
tendent, and he found it most valuable
when students applied for positions and
references were sought.
"My experience up there" said Mr..
Willmsn, Twas that employers, partic.
ularly railroads. wanted the school
record of prospective employe. With
this system we could furnish it to them
Immediately.
The value of the system will not
assert itself until at least year or two
in the future, because of the fact that
the histories it will record are now
being made.

Every ward in the city has been
ably represented by chairman and
this has helped to make success
of every part of the work attempted.
The work of the branches in the
county is also appreciated; their
interest as well as the material help
they have given is as much a part
of the success of the Auxiliary as the
efforts put forth in town.
