Curved rear fenders, billed front fenders, electric headlights, black & brass side lights - I'll go with 1916.

And the aftermarket accessory K-W Road Smoother shocks don't seem to be able to help the chassis, the rear fender is resting on the tire

I count 33, but there might be one hidden in the back that I did not count.

I counted 34. You may missed #6 looks like a big head of hair behind #7. Also #4 is set back then behind #5 & #7

I’m with Tim. A 1915 due to the brass headlamp and cowllamp rims.

And some load on that ‘15 too.
Note #16 is likely the dean, big at approx. 200 lbs. #19, the young teacher, prob. 160lbs. Now add up the 32 students, including the little girls on the folded top, using approx. 65lbs. each…….grand total 2,536lbs.

I’m a little concerned by the backwards slant of the radiator ! Do you suppose that load of over a ton of humanity has bowed the frame ?
