My Great-Grandpa’s 1926 Report Card — Straight A’s in History (Literally)
Found my great-grandfather’s 1926 report card, and let’s just say—grades were handwritten, ink was blotchy, and penmanship was an actual subject. Turns out, he was crushing arithmetic and geography, but let’s not talk about deportment (someone was chatty in class).
The paper’s yellowed, the corners are curled, and it smells like pure nostalgia — or maybe just 99-year-old paper. Either way, it’s a charming peek into academic life when “remote learning” meant daydreaming by the coal stove. No stickers, no emojis, just old-school evaluation and a stern teacher signature. Honestly? It deserves a frame and a gold star.
