Sch.

Sch. for school is on the 1900 census list of twenty short forms allowed in the occupation column. The same instructions asked for a teacher in school to be reported as such, and set apart a professor in a college or university and a teacher of music or art.

So Teacher, Sch. usually means a schoolteacher, while a janitor at a school also shows the place of work with Sch. Do not confuse the occupation entry with column 21, where the 1900 census recorded months of school attendance.
