Re: [Cz-L] School questions

Ruth,

That is very interesting.

Could I ask you which on corner the school was located?

If you imagine you are walking along the Siebenbuergerstrasse away from the
Ringplatz, towards the Volksgarten, you come to the crossroads where the
Neuweltgasse is on the left. Was your school on the near-left corner
(nearer the Cathedral), or on the far-left corner (nearer the Volksgarten)?

Best regards,

David

Hi Marianne and Leo,

Congratulations on your new project!

I frequented a public elementary school named "Scoala Primara Oltea Doamna"
for
girls only, from 1937-1940. The school was located in the corner of
Neueweltgasse and Siebenbuergerstrasse.

We had one religion class for Jewish students. (Religia Mozaica)

When the Soviets came, we had to repeat the same grade. This time it was a
mixed

school for boys and girls. I don't remember the name or number, but it was
in
the building of the previous

"Liceul Oltea Doamna" for girls.

My bother went to L1 ( Liceul Aron Pumnul) for boys only.

If you need some more information please contact me

Best regards,

Ruth

Subject: [Cz-L] School questions

Marianne and I are working on a series of essays about school photos.
Of course, we also want to focus on such images taken at different
periods of time in Czernowitz/ Cernâuți/Chernovtsi/ Chernvitsi.

We’ve followed the interesting List-member discussions over the years
about schools (and have viewed all the school photos on EHPES). But we
still have a number of questions about schools, and would very much
appreciate some background help from the senior members of the List
who actually attended these institutions in the interwar period and in
the early 1940s.

A. Elementary (primary) schools, 1918-1940 (during the Romanian era,
pre-2nd War:
1. Were the schools largely mixed in ethnicity (Jews, Romanians,
Ukrainians, etc.)? Mixed in gender (boys and girls)? Were there any
that primarily taught a single group?
2. Did all schools also have to include some instruction related to
religion?
3. What were the names of some of the elementary (primary schools) -
private and public?

B. Secondary (high school education), 1918-1940:

1. Were ALL public and private gymnasia and lyceums mixed in ethnicity
(Jews, Romanians, Ukrainians, etc?
Did any teach BOTH males and females?
3. Curriculum? What subjects were taught?
4. Could you review the names of the secondary schools for us -
private and public?
5. What is the difference between a Gymnasium and a Lyceum?

C. Specific questions:
1. (for Berti Glaubach??): could you tell us more about the “Elite”
school you attended?
2. We are confused about the Safa Ivria school: was it only an
“after-school” program teaching the Hebrew language and Jewish culture
– or was it a state recognized school that taught a full curriculum?
What grade levels did it include?
3. Does anyone the history of the Hoffmann Lyzeum? When was it
created? We know it was later renamed.

D. During the war years – after the ghetto closure: Could you tell us
a bit more about the grades covered and instruction at the
“Improvised” school in (or next to?) the Toynbeehalle that was
organized by the Jewish Kultusgemeinde?

Whatever help any of you can offer us will be immensely appreciated!!!

Many, many thanks! Leo & Marianne
