From Shorpy.com: a classroom full of kids in 1921. I think I like the kid all the way over to the left (click on Full View): he looks like an incorrigible troublemaker. XD

It's interesting the way their eyes look in those old photos. Kind of creepy, eh? I suppose it's from the shutter of the camera having to be open for a while and them blinking during that time frame.

And you're right, the one on the left looks like he's scratching his name into the desk or having to write lines for misbehaving. Hee hee...

I have got to start reading Shorpy regularly. Thanks for the reminder.

That picture is like Tom Sawyer come to life. There's even a kid with no shoes in the front row. (I wonder what the teacher is doing with those vials?)

I love Shorpy so hard.
