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:
A search for 'I* Hopman' turned up two results, but Itta was the only girl and in addition her birthdate made her an appropriate age to have attended the Gymnasium and High School for Girls.
Approver Comment:
Did you also consider Ita Hofman, born in 1921? Hofman and Hopman often show up as analogues for one another.

User Comment:
Itta lived at the Konigsburg address with her father, Israel (b. 1891), her mother, Alta (b. 1891), and her sister, Golda (b. 1922).
The family was deported on March 20, 1942, on which date there was a deportation to Chelmno.
Approver Comment:
I agree that this information is correct for Itta Hopman. Please look again at Ita Hofman as another possible candidate.
