Perrysburg Schools Foundation invites the community to a special presentation by Holocaust Survivor Helen Marks, who was hidden as a child during the Holocaust and has devoted her life to educating younger generations about the importance of remembrance, resilience, and compassion.
Ms. Marks will share her personal account of survival and the individuals and circumstances that helped keep her safe during one of the darkest periods in world history. A Q&A and brief reception will follow.
This community event is held in conjunction with Ms. Marks’ daytime visit with about 400 Perrysburg Junior High School 8th graders as part of the English Language Arts Holocaust unit. Students spend several weeks studying survivor testimony, literature, and historical context, building toward these firsthand learning experiences.
