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.

User Comment:
We found a Helena Kalska Born January 21,1927 that was a prisoner at the Flossenburg Concentration Camp. Prisoner 59548, entered December 2nd 1944. Though we have no real solid proof that H Kalska is Helena, we have found that some of the data we found is from someone that was born with the same name exactly one earlier, in 1926. So I am wondering if it might be from human error and could be the same person.

Do you have any information connecting her to Lodz?
I agree that given a large overlap of data, the date of 1926 might just be human error--but I want to hear more first!
