The caption on this photograph, and a few others, says “Steamer Class in Washington school”. What is (was) a Steamer Class?

    I can’t say I’ve ever heard that term before, so alas I have no idea what it means. The AI infected search engines aren’t any help either… sorry :(

      Thanks for trying!

      I remember that here was the same caption under a girls classroom, so it is not specific to this particular boys class(room); I haven’t found any other hint. It’s in Boston, so we could infer that there may a relation with steamers as steam-boats/ships; what kind of relation would that be, I don’t know.
