Dear DHS staff, students, and families,
On Monday, April 25th, District 113 will be holding an event to commemorate the lives of those lost to genocide, those who survived, upstanders, and rescuers. Genocide Commemoration Day was created by a student, Andrew Devedjian (DHS Class of 2017), in conjunction with the Social Studies Department to mark the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in 2015. Since then, we created a student committee to plan yearly events honoring the memory of victims and survivors of genocides and providing education about genocide, mass atrocities and hate crimes in all their forms, past and present. The day includes live and live-streamed speakers, displays that commemorate victims, survivors and upstanders, actions people can take to combat hate, and other interactive items to engage students and adults. Although the event is closed to the public, we invite the District 113 community to explore this website and to join us for the live-streamed speaker sessions on the District 113 YouTube channel. For all the details, check the Genocide Commemoration Day website at bit.ly/D113GCD. Thank you to our extraordinary students, sponsors, staff, and all guests and speakers who have made this meaningful event possible.
Sincerely,
Principal Kathryn Anderson
