School #8b was located at Ulica Limanoskiego 26. The street name was changed to Alexanderhof when German occupation began in 1939. See

User Comment:
Lea is a possible nickname for Lola. Lea's birthdate fits into the range in which it should for Lola. Podemski is the same last name as Podemska.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Lea and Lola being are often used interchangeably, one as a nickname for the other so I agree you've found the correct student. I look forward to seeing what you uncover in the next Stages.
Approver Comment:
I agree with your conclusions. In 1941 she would have been 11 years old, the correct age to attend school #8b. Remember to look for both Podemski and Podemska in the next stages.
