The Class of 1946 in the Lower Grades

Marilyn (Ordos) Kulseth (Class of 1946) has shared her photos with quite an impressive number of ID's dating all the way back to first grade in 1939.

Here is a Grade 1&2 photo of the classes of 1946 & 1945 taken in 1939.

Next is the Grades 2&3  photo of the classes of 1946 & 1947 taken in 1940. (As you might have figured out, since each photo is of  2 consecutive classes, one year you are with the class ahead of you and  the next year you are with the class behind you.)

(Note: What's interesting about this photo is that it was taken twice, moving some of the children into different positions. My guess is that this version was for the Class of 1946, and the one given immediately below was the Class of 1945. This photo was already posted in the sequence of the class of 1945 photos with the ID's. I am only posting the photo here.)

She has no 1942 photo, so the next one in the sequence is of the Classes of 1946 & 1945 Grades 5&6. That is also posted below with ID's in the set of photos from the Class of 1945. We repost it here without the ID's.

Next we move on to the 6th Grade photo of this class taken  with the Class of 1947 in 5th Grade. The date of the photo is 1944.
