ightmares o World War II Some victims of the holocaust try to forget that this nightmare ever occurred. For others, the killing of over twelve million innocent peo- ple, six million of them jews, by the Nazis during World War II, will never be forgotten. Many sur- vivors still bear the numerical tatoo of concentration camp graduates . Most are determined that events like this will never take place again. The teaching of such delicate subject material must be approached in such a way as to not offend the descendants of holocaust victims, or to set off feelings of ra- cial and religious prejudice. Fairview social studies instructor Scott Alexander feels that the sub- ject of the holocaust is inadequately covered in the history book's chap- ter on World War II. However new books were on order which would explain the holocaust better. 111 This social studies bulletin board is located in the vicinity of the 600 ILC library. l2l Mr. Niebur emphasizes a point in his world studies class.

Double school double Clays Everyday this year 1st semester lim Quadracci went to two schools. In the morning he attended Vo-tech and in the afternoon he and other students attended the second shift at 11:00 a.m. or the third shift at 2:30 p.m., then came to Fairview. There were 146 students attending two schools this year, which is about nine percent of the student body. This figure has dropped since four years ago when 11 percent at- tended Vo-tech.
