Antosha:

Aside from the two 'true' prophecies that we know of, no, I don't recall Cassandra 
Trelawney ever managing a spell at all.

Nonetheless, if she were a squib, Dumbledore wouldn't have interviewed her for the 
position of Divination teacher at all, would he? She must have graduated from Hogwarts--
or perhaps one of the overseas schools.
