Transcription Notes:
5.22.2024 - Resolved remaining [[?]]s; Marking for review Some handwritten answers are harder read. ---- Please place [[?]] in all spots where you cannot read something. This helps later transcribers know where to begin. School name is so obscured by written over and strikethrough text, it may be impossible to read. ---------- Reopened for Editing 2024-05-22 13:27:47
