Here we see what looks like a French class. The ladyseems rather over dressed for a teacher. Perhaps she is a dignitary of some sort. All we know about the photograph is that it was taken in Paris during 1937. The boys all wwar suits which also seems a bit formal for a primary school. They may have gone to private school. We don't know the
name of the school, but it obviously was a boys' school. I've thought I had archived this image earlier, but can't find it at this time. The boys seem to be about 9 or 10 years old, which would be the equivalent of the 5th grade in America. All of the boys wears short pants with knee socks, most wear suits while a few wear sweaters. Some wear shirts with neckties. This seems more formal than the ways boys dressed at a state primary.
