2nd grade, class of 62, Mrs. Hipsher, 1951-52
Above is my class picture for the second grade. Below are the front and back of my report card for that year.
You will notice that three teachers are involved; Mrs. Lapinsky, Mrs. Hipsher, and Mrs. Kisky.
The article below in the Feb. 1, 1952 issue of The Walrus, explains the mystery of three teachers.
Class Divided
Walter Lienau, Supt. of the Provo School, announced last week that the second grade would be divided into three classes. There had previously been two classes.
This step was necessary because of the recent increase in the second grade enrollment which reached 77 pupils when many new workers brought their families here after the holidays.
"Pupils in the second grade," he said, "need individual attention, especially in reading. By adding another class the teacher can give them the help they need."
The third group will hold classes in the Child Center building. Rooms assigned to the kindergarten were changed to make space available.
Mrs. Frances Kirsky, of Des Moines, Ia., arrived Monday to assume her duties as class instructor. Mrs. Woodrow Hipsher served as subsitute teacher until she arrived.
As the back of the report card indicates this was my last year in the class of 62.
As indicated in the inside of the report card I missed half the 5th quarter because I had pneumonia.
(I think it was because I didn't know who my teacher was.)
The report card gives you an idea of the subjects that were taught in second grade in the early fifties.
