Ten students were selected to attend the Holocaust Museum in Skokie, Illinois to view a number of the exhibits as well as attend a discussion with a Holocaust survivor and ask questions. Some of our students were able to ask engaging and thought-provoking questions regarding a personalized experience of the Holocaust in a way that may not always be accessible to learn about.
Additionally, a number of these students have not been able to attend this museum and it was a great opportunity to see some of the underlying information about the Holocaust to apply to one of our online history classes or inspire individual projects for credit. This field trip proved to be insightful for students to learn and understand one of the darkest events in human history.
