A final exam from 1895. But not for 8th graders.
Nov. 28, 2006
I
got an e-mail this morning telling me about an actual 8th grade final
exam from 1895. I'm always suspicious of e-mails like this, so I
went to the source. It does seem partially legit - though there's
nothing on the original exam that mentions "8th grade" - it simply says
"Graduation". A little bit more research led me to this:
1895 Exam Rumor
Sometimes I think the internet is a cross between that old game of "Telephone" and a never-ending Liars' Club contest.

Thanks for sharing. I had seen that exam and never thought about whether it was real or not. Sometimes when we are sent something that looks legit, we forget to check it out for sure.

Hi, I am an affiliate of Homeschool E-store, the box on the right of my messages that shows the free item of the week is suppose to be used for my affiliate link but I have no idea if it works or not. I figure if people use it fine, if not that's fine too. Don't get me wrong, I would appreciate it and I thank you for asking, but I also like letting other homeschoolers know about good deals and sites that can help them and I just know Homeschool E-store has been a blessing in my life. Not many places are willing to give away a free e-book each week, so I like to share it with others.
