Announcements – Thursday, November 6

Good afternoon, Blue Wave. Today is Thursday, November 6, 2025  Holocaust Remembrance Week This week, our school is observing Holocaust Remembrance Week. Each day, we’ll share a short fact to honor the memory of those who suffered and to remind us of the importance of tolerance, empathy, and standing up against hate. Not everyone stood by in silence. Thousands of people across Europe, known as the Righteous Among the Nations, risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust. Their bravery shows that one person’s choices can make a difference, even in the darkest times.
