Upper School Students Visit Virginia Holocaust Museum

Students gained an appreciation and imprint of knowledge about historical events that have helped define our world.

Banner Christian Ninth Grade Students Visit the Virginia Holocaust Museum.

After studying World War II, ninth grade students recently got a closer, more detailed look at the Holocaust experience.

Below, please find a YouTube video to the Virginia Holocaust Museum's latest program, "Dimensions in Testimony," which was amazing. Students were able to ask Holocaust survivors questions about their experience—and it is more than worth your time.   

Class members gathered in a simulated cattle car used to transport the Jews and other targeted groups to concentration camps during World War II.

The Virginia Holocaust Museum is dedicated to preserving the history of the Holocaust. It honors the victims, celebrates the survivors, strives to educate about the dangers of prejudice and complacency in order to prevent such atrocities from happening again.
