On November 3, 1941, the school year began in 103 schools of besieged Leningrad! Despite the hunger, the cold and the constant bombings, more than 30 thousand high school students sat down at their desks. Another 60 thousand school students in grades 1-6 studied in shelters and homes. During the lessons, which started at 11 in the morning, did not exceed 25 minutes and ended at two in the afternoon, the children did not take notes so that their hands would not freeze, and the teachers tried to present the material as quickly and simply as possible. The city lived, the city worked, the city did not give up! It was the 135th day of the Great Patriotic War. Remember the war. We are now at MAX.
