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 believe this is the student that signed the book based upon her name being an exact match with the database, as well as her birth year being exactly between the recommended dates for a student at School 8B.

Thank you for starting research on Helena Sieradzka. I agree with your conclusion about her identity. Please continue your research about her to see what more can be learned about her life.
Approver Comment:
I agree you've found the person who most likely signed this name in the album. Thank you for your note on your process! You'll also find her listed as Helena Sieradzki--remember to add this spelling of her name, as well as the additional full Bleicherweg address you'll find in that record. Both records have additional dates associated with them (A.G. 30.09.1942 and 20.10.1942 respectively)--I hope you can find out more about those dates in the next stages.
