This photograph of the 4th-grade students at the Erzsébet Izraelita Elemi Iskola [Elisabeth Jewish Elementary School] in Miskolc was taken on April 21, 1942. Less than two years later, most of the students had perished in the Holocaust. Their names are recorded in the Miskolc yizkor book.

The photograph was preserved by John (János) Kovács, one of the few students who survived. The names of the students --- which were provided by Mr. Kovacs --- are listed by row, starting with the students on the extreme left of each row.
