PICTURE OF THE WEEK
ARTICLE OF THE WEEK
Our 8th graders recently visited the Museum of Jewish Heritage in Lower Manhattan. Students went on guided tours of the renowned, traveling Auschwitz exhibit, "Auschwitz, Not long ago, Not far away", where they learned about life in Europe before World War II, Hitler's rise to power, The Final Solution, and more. This trip kicked off our annual Names Not Numbers program that our eighth graders elect to participate in. Names Not Numbers is a yearlong intense program where students document individual survivors' stories through interviewing and filming.
