Summary: The narrator graduated from Holy Trinity School in 1970, and was taught by Fransiscan nuns. She describes her uniforms, her studies, and the fact that although the school at the time was restricted to children of church members, who in turn were restricted to those of Polish ancestry, the students learned no Polish other than the carols that they learned for Christmas Masses. She describes how the older girls served the hot lunches and cleaned up, including washing the pots.
