Hi all Czernovitsi,
Can anyone help me figure out what school my dad was likely at during the
war? *He would have graduated high school in Czernowitz in 1944.*

Here is an excerpt from the only interview with him I have:
"Sent to still another camp, he promptly made his third escape and slipped
back into Cernauti. There he learned that his school was conducting a
speed-up program to allow top students to receive their diplomas. (he
attended under his real name, Carl Schmatnik).

'The war had caused such chaos that his return was accepted without
question. None of his teachers was aware of the fact that he ws a
three-time escapee from forced-labor camps. In June 1944, shortly after he
graduated, the Nazis decided to check on reports that labor camp escapees
had filtered back into the schools. Gil was apprehended and compelled to
show his diploma."

I've tried to locate his high school graduation record but not knowing what
school has made it hard to figure out.

Thank you!
