EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time at Peters Rest elementary school in Christiansted, St. Croix, Virgin Islands. Taken by renowned photographer Jack Delano in December 1941, this image offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of children during an era marked by both hardship and resilience. In this snapshot of history, we see a group of vibrant young souls eagerly engaging with their education. Their faces radiate curiosity and determination as they gather around their teacher, ready to absorb knowledge that will shape their futures. The girls wear traditional dresses adorned with braids while the boys sport simple attire reflective of the times. These children embody the essence of youthful innocence amidst challenging circumstances. Taken during the early years of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal initiative, which aimed to uplift communities through various programs including education reform, this photograph symbolizes hope for a brighter future through increased literacy and access to quality schooling.
