her young son or daughter brought home his report card for the first time this fall says the christian science moni tor in a story from akron ohio outstanding indeed was the ab sence of red ink which formerly marked failures and somehow a new group of subjects had appeared alongside the old readin writin and rithmetic even the card it self was no longer called a grade card or a plain report card it seems rather it was dignified by the title scholarship record the new cards are the result of a suggestion of ralph h waterhouse superintendent of schools who be lieves that education is a process of developing an individuals capacity to live a satisfactory life rather than just a system of academic grading and failures in red ink the red ink which used to scream failure at the pupil the minute he picked up his crd really did nothing but discourage the pupil in any attempt to better himself mr waterhouse believes now instead of the letters or numbers which used to mark pro gress it includes a set of covering phrases these include unusual work and rapid progress satis factory work and normal progress acceptable work but slow progress and little or no progress the card explains that little or no pro gress indicates failure included in the group of new subjects are personal habits social habits and work habits the cards were developed by a large group of principals who have made a wide survey of pupils pro gress throughout the country in explanation of the new ideas incor porate on it mr waterhouse says reports of pupil progress should- interprct to parents the fundamental objectives of the school and give an made a wide survey of pupils pro gress towards this objective in the past almost every school used a different kind of report card ranging from the graph method to letter grading or vtters supplement ed with figures now there are uni form cards no formal report card at all is used in the first grade ac cording to mr waterhouse because the need for close cooperation be tween parents and teacher in that grade is so important that informal means of reporting progress should be used in these grades teachers should visit the home frequently and par ents
