For students in gr 4-12: We stand silent to remember those that were killed during the Holocaust. We also stand silent to reflect on the survivors, the heroes that lived. Many who left their countries after World War II who settled around the world, many came to NJ and even to Bergen County. If we were to stand silent for every victim in the Holocaust we would stand for over 11 years! We stand to remember that prejudice can start small but turn into a great tragedy. #HolocaustRemembranceDay
