DescriptionGirls and women pose on the steps and porch of a large brick building. Most wear coats, jackets or capes, and hats or caps. Two women, presumably teachers, are seated on the porch railing. The photograph is surrounded by a frame made of gathered green cloth, which has been stitched to the cardboard mount with black thread. A separate cloth tie is attached to the back of the mount.
