This photo of my fourth grade school class was taken in Budapest in the 1930s.
I attended the Jewish school at 44 Wesselenyi Street. I was taught well at the school. There were courses in the Hebrew language and literature. We studied the Bible and prayer books, and learned various songs, and prayers. We also did translations and we had to know all sorts of things, but after finishing school we didn't have to deal with those subjects further.
