Please Help Me ID This Girls Schwinn

When I bought my Hercules a couple days ago, the price of admission was this old girls Schwinn single speed bicycle. It appears to have been repainted and I looked for a serial number on the headtube and the bottom bracket, but there was not one that I saw.

Does anyone have any idea what model this might be? Photos follow.

BTW, I think that rack is just too cool!

Looks like it might have been an early '60s Fiesta. The tank is in backwards ...
