Administration

Series documents the administration of the college including course scheduling, the management of staff, students, and property, and the discontinuation of the college. The series is arranged into subject files containing meeting minutes, timetables, oaths, agreements, staff and student lists, and correspondence.

Admissions registers

Series documents the admission of new students to North Bay Normal School/Teachers' College from 1909 to 1958. The series contains two types of registers: entrance registers, which cover the period 1909-1958, and signature and address registers, for the years 1909-1945. Entrance registers contain new students' contact and personal information, including any prior teaching experience or training. Signature and address registers contain declarations by candidates for admission that they intend to prepare for the teaching profession, as well as their contact information during the session (academic year). Registers are arranged chronologically.

Calendars

Series consists of files of academic calendars published by the Ontario Department of Education for the Ontario teachers' colleges. Calendars contain information including college addresses, staff lists, courses, programs of study and certificates offered, admission requirements, board and lodging, expenses, financial aid, and student organizations. Files are arranged chronologically.

Grading

Series documents the grading of students in their courses and practice teaching placements. The series mostly consists of two types of registers: reports of grades and results (sometimes called sessional records), which document student grades by subject and their final results/standing (pass or fail), from 1909 to 1974; and training registers, which document student grades and evaluation remarks made during their practice teaching placements in local schools, from 1909 to 1954. Registers are arranged chronologically and, in the case of training registers, alphabetically by student surname.

Yearbooks

Series consists of yearbooks prepared by the students of North Bay Normal School / Teachers' College, and photographs that were used in the design of yearbooks.

Yearbooks contain: lists of staff, students, and practice teaching placements; membership lists of student teams, clubs, and committees; messages from administrators and valedictorians; advertisements; and a variety of student literary compositions including poems, essays, short stories, jokes, editorials, biographical tributes, and accounts of club activities, parties, trips, and other social and special events. Yearbooks also contain illustrations and photographs and photomontages of school staff, students, clubs, sports teams, committees, and events.
