7th & 8th graders at Sherwood School

Title

7th & 8th graders at Sherwood School

Description

Sepia-toned image of a group of students gathered on the front steps of a school. Most of the boys wear overalls and all have short hair, while the girls wear a variety of styles of dress, reflecting the more fitted styles of the previous decades. All the children are dressed in more adult fashion rather then the shorter skirts and less-adult styles that became popular in the 1910s for children, girls especially.
