Today at Marion High School we had many things going on outside of our classes. Golf meets, blood drives and much more, but among all of this, there was a visitor here today. Here at MHS, there was a holocaust survivor. She was here to share her experiences with students. But only a few select students were able to listen to this speaker. This is something everyone should have the chance to experience.

The Holocaust was a major event in history and it is one that we learn about all throughout our school years and even into our adult lives. Having the chance to hear the story of someone who has actually experienced this event would have been amazing and beneficial to students. It would have taught them in a different way and may have even made a bigger impact on them. Even though most were not learning about this in their classes, this speaker could have taught them something and isn’t that the reason we go to school?
