PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY: On January 29, 2010 the Washington State Holocaust Education Resource Center will be offering a one day seminar for educators: “Creating Change: Teaching about the Holocaust and Genocide.” We work with many teachers within the Archdiocese and would like to let these teachers, and others, know about this upcoming opportunity.
