A black and white photo of a classroom scene with students sitting at desks facing a teacher who is standing at the front, reading from a book. The walls are adorned with posters, including one with the musical notes for "America the Beautiful," and bookshelves line the back wall. The setting appears to be from a mid-20th century era.
