Worcester School 1940-1949

Please be aware: All class photos labeled 1940 appear to be mislabeled.  First, group photos were taken in alternating years.  There is a series of 1937 and a series of 1941 photos implying a 1939 NOT a 1940 series.  Following the progression of the students in the photos, 1939 would be in sequence.  Second, the 10th grade photo, to be consistent with the other “Class of” photos, would have been taken the year prior.  Based on the clothing of the faculty it was clearly taken the same day as the photos of the other upper grades.  For these reasons the photos marked 1940 appear on the 1930-1939 page.
