Gymnasium and high school for boys
Gymnasium and high school students were typically between 14 and 20 years old. A gymnasium student in September 1941 was likely born between 1921 and 1927.
The gymnasium and high school for boys was located on Otylii. The street name was changed to Ottilienstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Otylii and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
Stephan was born in 1924. Students attending this school were born between 1921 and 1927. In addition his last name is a perfect match. This leads me to believe that he is S. Prentki
Stefan Plentki, and Stephan Plentka are the same boy i beileve, they have the same birthday.
Approver Comment:
I agree! Since -ki is a male-gendered ending and -ka a female-gendered ending, we've found a number of students who signed the album who appear in the database under both spellings. I look forward to seeing what you uncover in the next stages!

Great work. The card also shows us that he had been working since December 2, 1941. I look forward to seeing what else you discover about Stefan in the next stages.
