We had those same kind of desks when I was in grade school in the early 1950's. We had shoes though!

I've got a picture of my dad from that era in front of the school house with some other kids. Girls in dresses, boys in bib overalls. All of them barefoot.

When I was a kid I'd hunt rabbits behind the old school house my dad went to in KS.
The desk were very much like those. There was still a bell and bell tower and an old piano.
The school house was never locked that I can remember.

They had shoe rationing during WW2 it could have been still on in 46. It was 2 pair a year and kids could outgrow a pair in a short order.
