Michelle Best, an Austintown Middle School teacher, spoke at the Youngstown Area Jewish Federation’s 26th Annual Community Holocaust Commemoration event on May 2nd about the importance of introducing Holocaust-based themes and lessons in the classroom. To her surprise she was not only there to speak about Holocaust education, but was recognized for her work as a Holocaust educator.

“Lessons of the Holocaust are just as relevant today as they were twenty years ago, and dare I say, even more important. Our voices may be the only thing we have to stand up for injustices that we see happening around us,” she expressed during her speech.
