Renfroe Middle School 6th graders will take to streets Tuesday afternoon in a peace walk to stamp out hate. To supplement their classroom education on the Holocaust in Humanities and Language Arts, students will spend a day learning about historical figures who have suffered because of discrimination and hate, listening to a Holocaust survivor, and creating their own powerful verses to show how they might help eradicate hate and foster acceptance in our world. The walk will begin at Renfroe around 1 and will proceed to the Downtown Decatur Square. Students will display their verses on the walk.
As a parent of a child with special needs, who has Jewish father, and since he has 2 moms…I am so excited the school did this.
