We have invited Mrs. Livia Krancberg to speak to the 7th and 8th grade on May 1st. Livia Krancberg, a San Diego resident, survived a childhood spent in the infamous Auschwitz death camp during the Second World War. In order to help ensure that similar events are not repeated, Mrs. Krancberg travels to schools throughout San Diego to share her story with middle and high school audiences. In her presentation, she speaks about both her experiences during the Holocaust as well as the negative influences of intolerance and prejudice in modern society.

In order to get her to our school we will need a parent volunteer that is willing to provide her transportation to and from school. If you are able to commit to picking her up at 12:30 from her house on Wednesday, May 1st (she lives near San Diego State University) and drive her to school please let me know asap (rcurry@otacharter.org). She will also require a ride home around 2:30pm.

Parents are welcome to attend the presentation, however space is limited so please let me know if you would like to attend the event.
