The Power of Our Approach
“Rather than just learning the facts my students will walk away understanding the human element to the story. They will realize that all actions, even inaction, have consequences to the world around them.”
"I feel like I now have language to communicate some injustices, as well as a deeper understanding of the history and lead-up to the Holocaust. I feel emotionally charged, and ready to make a difference."
"Facing History has transformed my teaching.“
