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:
Initially we searched for Maria's full name in the database, 'sounds like' her name, and her first initial and her last name, and we found no matching results. However, after searching for 'Maria Leszcznski' instead of 'Maria Leszczynska' an exact match came up of a female student who was born in 1926. This would have put her at the necessary age to have been attending Gymnasium. This is most likely the student from the list.
