Summary of Records

This series contains standard pre-printed booklets used to track the identity, attendance, and academic performance of students at the school. Each teacher at the school typically used one register each year to track his or her class of students. Each register typically provides space to record the name of the school, school year, teachers name and grade or grade levels in the class. They also include such student information as student names, attendance, date of birth, home address, parent's name, academic evaluations, and whether or not the student was promoted to the next grade.

Scope and Content

Most of the registers were labeled at some point as being from Jackson School, but closer examination shows them all to be from Wasatch School. The old Wasatch School stood on R Street between South Temple and 1st Avenue.
