There is nothing more rewarding than seeing former students chase their dreams and build successful careers.

Today we had the opportunity to visit the AnnAdele salon, owned by one of our former students, and where another former student is thriving in aesthetics. Watching these talented young women serve their clients with confidence and turn their passion into a profession is inspiring!

Their hard work, dedication, and perseverance have truly paid off. What a fantastic way to kick off our school year!

He has been teaching the Holocaust since the early 1990's, both at the secondary and post secondary levels and has published several articles in national and international journals dealing with this subject. He serves as the cochair for the Holocaust Education Center of the Champaign Urbana Jewish Federation, while sharing the legacy of his family's experiences during the Holocaust.
