In February, Mrs. Kennedy’s 8th grade English students at Ernie Davis Academy didn’t just study the Holocaust—they connected with it.
As part of their unit, students learned about survivor Dr. Irene Butter (age 95) and were inspired to write her heartfelt letters… and they were deeply received. Her assistant read each one aloud to Dr. Butter and sent photos back to the class.
A powerful reminder: student voices matter—and meaningful learning goes far beyond the classroom. #GoExpress
