Description
A few of the Thorson School District 56 students in 1942 did take an indoors photograph during one of their class sessions, with each student sitting in their assigned seats and turning to look to the back of the room. The students in the first row on the left from the front to the back are Thomas McKeown, Gordon Overland, Marjorie Sorenson, and Arthur Anderson. In the second row are Edna Holger, Ruby Trogstad, Betty Trogstad, and Carol Holger. In the back row is Beverly Overland.

The photo is held secure in a custom mat of pastel green which also holds the identification. It is all in a simple varnished wooden frame.
