FEMININE PHILOGY SCHOOL

SCHOOL Photography souvenir of a female elementary class: 2B. The students wear all the classic white apron distinguished by a light ribbon. In the center of the first row a pair of twins appropriately posed by the photographer in order to create a choreographic mirror effect. The single teacher, posing as smiling as all the girls, managed the entire class of more than 35 students, an event not rare in the baby boom years, with the schooling set for the achievement of the diploma of eighth grade or (alternatively ) at the age of 14. The numerous successive reforms of the school have begun a period of experimentation that has led to an evolution of teaching, also decreasing the number of students per class and adding one or more colleagues alongside the owner, in order to guarantee to all schoolchildren opportunities to study, and to discourage school leaving in accordance with the increase in the age of the obligation.
