School #8 was a school for girls in Lodz. The students in #8b attended classes in the afternoon. Most students were between 9 and 15 years old, meaning that they were born between 1926 and 1932.
School #8b was located at Ulica Limanoskiego 26. The street name was changed to Alexanderhof when German occupation began in 1939. See

User Comment:
I searched her last name with her first name as R*. While the name that I received was not exactly the same i can assume that it is the same person because it is so similar and the last name is identical. The search results that I received indicated that she was a schueler (student) and was born 1929 which was the correct age for a student in School #8B.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this is the student who most likely signed this name in the album. Rywcia and Rywka are close enough analogues that we're likely safe in saying that these names point to the same person. Please also add the Bleicherweg address to a "ghetto street address" field on this stage. Good luck in the next stages!

I agree that the deportations in March 1942 went to Chelmno. Thank you for helping to complete Sura Rywka's record. If you like, you may now complete a biography for Sura Rywka.
