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:
Yes, it is very possible that Sara Tauba Biderman is the gymnasium student who signed the album. She is of the right age, and her occupation is listed as both "student" and "house daughter." However, there are two other Sara Biderman's who are of the right age -- Sara Biderman (b. 1924) and the less likely Sara Rywka Biderman (b. 1921). Therefore, I have to list this submission as "possible" until we get more conclusive evidence.

I'm listing this as "possible" since we cannot yet be sure that "Sara (Sura) Taube Biderman" is the same person who signed the album.
