User Comment:
I searched Mala's name in the database and one result came up. The birthdate would have matched the age of Mala for her to attend school #8B.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
I agree that you've found the right student, as Mala would've been the right age to attend School #8B. Be sure to add in her other address Bismarck 13 and her middle name Malka. I'm looking forward to seeing what you find in the next stages!

I searched for Mala's family by looking for people with the same last name who lived at the same address as her. Through that search I found a young man and woman, possibly the parents, and a young boy who resided in the same apartment as her.
