HJH 8th grade students recently traveled to Dallas, Texas for their annual field trip. The trip is funded by our fundraising event in the fall. The students first toured the Dallas Holocaust Museum and were fortunate enough to get to hear a survivor from the Warsaw Ghetto talk with them. Students walked to the Spaghetti Warehouse and had lunch. Then students learned all about John F. Kennedy's life and death at the 6th Floor Museum. In addition, Mrs. Henkes arranged for an additional experience called: Conflicting Evidence: The First 24 Hours After the Assassination. Mrs. Henkes acquired a scholarship from the Dallas Holocaust Museum to cover admission for all students and chaperones. The students were very well behaved and learned a lot.
