ARTICLE OF THE WEEK
This past Tuesday evening, was inspiring and emotional as parents joined participating 8th grade students in the culmination of a year long project, focused on carrying on the legacy of Holocaust survivors through young people. Yeshiva Har Torah is one of thirty six schools and colleges worldwide to host  Names, Not Numbers , a program created by Mrs. Tova Fish-Rosenberg, connecting Holocaust survivors with students. Part of the mission of  Names, Not Numbers  is to transform traditional Holocaust education, inspire future generations to carry on the stories of survivors and combat antisemitism and all forms of hatred and intolerance. Over the course of the school year, thirty one eighth grade students participated in the interactive, multimedia Holocaust oral history film project. Students learned interviewing skills and video and editing techniques as they interviewed and recorded the stories of six Holocaust survivors.

The evening included a dinner reception with the survivors and a first time screening of the documentary film, including the process of the project as well as the stories of the survivors. The film will become a part of oral Holocaust history archives in the  Mendel Gottesman Library of Yeshiva University , the   National Library of Israel at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem , and at   Yad Vashem . Aaron Rouhani and Aliza Toplan, representing the group of students, spoke about this life changing experience of being part of the  Names, Not Numbers  program. Thank you to Mrs. Rachel Leah Mittelman for overseeing and organizing  Names, Not Numbers  at YHT this year.
