I found this 5th & 6th class photos for the Avondale School. I don’t know the year, maybe in the 1940’s or 1950’s. Maybe someone will recognize a person or two and post a date.

Photo 2 for this story:

This photo is of Lela Graham with her class on a field trip to Lincoln Park. No school buses back then.  Most likely they traveled by streetcar down Diversey to get to the lake front.

Lela Graham, shown at the right, with 3 other teachers from the Avondale School. These teachers look like they were very capable in handling a class size of over 40 pupils.
