This series consists of the extant PMSS student records. It is by
no means a complete record, especially for the years prior to 1930.
There are a few instances
where the record dates 1913-18 or post-1940, but such papers, usually in the
form of correspondence, are few and negligible to the overall emphasis of the
file. The record is divided into three groupings:
- Students, ca 1919-30 (approximately 6 cubic
feet)
- Students, A-Z, ca 1930-49 (approximately 19
cubic feet)
- Miscellaneous Student Files, ca 1928-47 (1
cubic foot)
For the most part, the individual student file is not located in more than one
chronological grouping, but the researcher should check all three when searching
for a particular name, especially if the student attended Pine Mountain Settlement
School ca 1925-30.
The detail and extent of the documentation varies within the series. The most
comprehensive file (Students, A-Z, ca 1930-49) includes the following:
- Student application blanks which include birth dates, directory information,
prior education, and references
- Parents' biographical and economic status reports, which include directory
information, education, employment, religious affiliation, and reports of
house / land ownership and other finances (these rather personal and detailed
forms were not completed uniformly by all parents)
- Letters of academic progress written by students and sent to parents
- Evaluations of students by their teachers and work supervisors
- Reports of cumulative credits (Pine Mountain operated on a non-graded system
from ca 1934-40s
- Achievement and IQ testing documentation
- Health records. The record prior to 1930 consists of transcripts, correspondence,
and billing statements sent to parents
The miscellaneous files at the end of the series are achievement testing and
medical records.
