Powerful lesson at Water’s Edge Elementary! The Museum of Tolerance taught 5th graders how to combat hate, distinguish hate speech from offensive speech, and navigate social media responsibly. Teaching kids to think critically and stand up against hate is more important than ever

An unforgettable evening at Spanish River HS in honor of Yom HaShoah. Students premiered a powerful documentary featuring their interviews with Holocaust Survivors—ensuring that memory becomes legacy.

Today Boca Raton HS , students released butterflies in memory of the 1.5 million children murdered by the Nazis during the Holocaust. A powerful reminder of lives lost—and the responsibility we carry to remember them. #YomHaShoah #NeverForget

Yesterday, the incredible HEAL students Don Estridge led a powerful Holocaust education program for 6th grade. They taught with heart, preparing their peers for the Flutter of Hope butterfly project. Truly inspiring to see students teaching students and keeping memory alive.

Fourth graders @EgretLakeElementary engaged deeply with Hana’s Suitcase, learning about Hana’s story and the impact of the Holocaust through a child’s eyes. Their empathy, curiosity, and reflections remind us why we teach this history. We remember.

This experience in DC will be one I will never forget. Spending days learning and reflecting in museums and evenings spent hearing stories of Holocaust survivors. I cannot thank inSIGHT Through Education, Inc. and The School District of Palm Beach County enough for this opportunity. #whatyoudomatters

Midway through our second day in Poland with the March of the Educators,this group of 21 dedicated The School District of Palm Beach County principals is already leaving a mark. With powerful moments of reflection in Warsaw, we are learning, connecting, and bearing witness together.

Day 3 began at the Jewish cemetery in Warsaw, a space of memory and reverence. We then walked through Majdanek, dedicating our visit to Norman Frajman. We ended in Lancut at a breathtaking synagogue, a powerful reminder of the resilience of Jewish life.#Marchoftheeducators

Today in Poland, we walked through history, honoring the Righteous in Markowa, standing at mass graves, hearing a mother’s farewell read by Survivor Rosette. “What would I say if I had 2 hours to tell my kids everything?” Gut-wrenching. Then hope at the JCC in Kraków.

Day 5 Today we walked through the gates of Auschwitz. We bore witness. We honored memory. We visited the Archer Center, once the commandant’s home, now a center for research. Closed the day in deep conversation with courageous school leaders. Israel next. 💙

Is it now clear that #Hamas is the not only the enemy of Israel but also of the Palestinian people? Yesterday, Hamas murdered five (maybe more) Palestinian aid workers working for the new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation & may have kidnapped others. Their crime? Delivering much

Powerful learning the past two days @ FAU Gutterman Holocaust Center, where we explored the role of propaganda in the Holocaust and its echoes today. Grateful to all the incredible Palm Beach County teachers who joined us, your commitment to truth and education inspires us all.
