Gymnasium and high school for girls
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 girls 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.

Approver Comment:
I think you've found her! Maria Frenkiel's name is an exact match in the database, and the birthdate makes her 17 years old at the time the album was signed, which is an appropriate age to have attended gymnasium.
For your future stage I research, if you can find an address, please add it to the comment field in the research workspace. Note here that Maria lived at Fischstrasse 17 4.
Since I think that the Maria Frenkiel you found is the one we're looking for, I'm marking this entry "Confirmed." I'm looking forward to seeing more of your research soon!

Approver Comment:
You appear to be one of the fortunate few in your class who's been able to follow your student into the fourth stage. I agree that this information is correct.
You've listed Buchenwald as the camp deported from--did you mean the one deported to?
I'd be interested to read your comments about how you feel being on this end of the process: what have you learned? What do you wish you could learn?
