For those of you who did not get to hear Karen Treiger tell her inlaws' remarkable story set in Poland during WWII, you missed a truly heartbreaking and intensely powerful presentation. Please ask the Grade 8 students about this and the impact this week's field trips have had on them. It also happens, that Karen's grandmother graduated from AWS in the late 1920's, and Karen got to tour around the campus after, which clearly brought her real joy to see the spaces she would have studied in and explored! It was a touching way to end such an emotional journey on Thursday afternoon.
ACTION ITEMS
- Permission slips for Friday's dance will be passed out at the beginning of Period 5 today. Shelli will bring them around to your classrooms.
