School #17A
School #17 was a school for girls in the Lodz ghetto; school #17a met in the morning. In 1941, students ranged in age from 6 to 13 years old (most were 8 to 11 years old), meaning they were born between 1928 and 1935.
School #17 was located at Młynarska 25. The street name was changed to Mühlstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See

Approver Comment:
I agree that you have found the student who most likely signed this name in the album. She falls right within the age range we'd expect for school #17a, and her last name as listed in the database, Mordkowski, is simply the male-gendered version of the name she signed in the album. I look forward to seeing what you uncover in the next stages!
