| This is a photo of PS10 singing Christmas Carols. I tried to figure
out what year this photo was taken based upon the sign in the background
announcing that PS10 would be singing "Christmas Carols" on Wednesday,
December 19th at 11 AM. According to the Almanac, the year was 1956.
That sounds about right. My guess is that everyone in this chorus photo
was in 8th grade in 1956. So, everyone in the photo (and I can name a
few) can now find out exactly what he or she was doing at 11AM on December
19, 1956: Singing at The Greater New York Savings Bank's Main Office on
Fifth Avenue, between 9th and 10th Streets, in Brooklyn, N.Y. I believe
the teacher with us was Mrs. Doyle, although I have no idea how I came up
with that name. If anyone can put a different name to that teacher, I'm
willing to believe it. Unfortunately, the line down the right side of the
photo can't be gotten rid of because it's a crack in the old photo.
