SERIES: 27644
TITLE: Registers
DATES: 1892-1936.
ARRANGEMENT: Chronological by school year, thereunder numerical by grade.

DESCRIPTION: This series contains official student registers from the Timpanogos School. All the registers are in a standardized booklet format, presumably published by the Territorial and later the State Office of Public Instruction. The earliest registers date from the 1892-1893 school year, which is the year the school opened. The registers typically record such information as student names, ages, parent names, place of residence, daily attendance, and some scholastic evaluations. The earlier registers also note whether students can read and write and whether their parents are Mormon or not. The registers are generally arranged by school year, teacher, and grade. Some registers also include lists of visitors, school-year schedules, and various school statistics. All the records in this series date from the time period when the Timpanogos School was housed in its original building located on the northwest corner of 5th West and 4th North, prior to the construction of a new school building just to the north in 1939.
