The Swampscott Education Foundation is proud to support Swampscott Public School educators participating in a powerful professional development experience in Poland through the Lappin Foundation. The participating educators are currently enrolled in the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Salem State University.
This immersive experience through the Lappin Foundation is designed to build radical empathy, deepen understanding of antisemitism and Holocaust education, and bring meaningful knowledge and perspective back to Swampscott Public Schools.
The program includes visits to Auschwitz-Birkenau and Majdanek, the Children’s Forest in Zbylitowska Góra, and the cities of Krakow and Lublin.
