Holocaust Memorial March for Change
On Wednesday, May 6 our school has been invited to participate in the Holocaust Memorial March For Change in Saskatoon. This is organized by the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission and the Think Good. Do Good organization. This is the same group that brought Robbie Waisman to our school in September.
I have provided students that were interested in attending a permission form and am looking forward to seeing them have an opportunity to be a part of this incredible experience.“Wednesday morning at 9:30 am we invite you with up to 60 students to Congregation Agudas Israel Synagogue where we will listen to the story of a Holocaust survivor named Sally Wasserman who was a hidden child as well as share the company of two other survivors. Following Sally's story, 500 students, teachers and guests will march around the block of the synagogue in support, strength and remembrance. We ask the students to consider the change they want to be in improving our community.” – Heather Fenyes (Think Good. Do Good)

Welcome to Semester 2
Hello! My name is Kelly Klassen and I am your students’ History 20 or 30 teacher for this semester. Thanks for visiting my blog. Please browse the links and continue to check back frequently for updates or respond with comments.
The ultimate aim of Social Science is for students to have a sense of themselves as active participants and citizens in an inclusive, culturally diverse, interdependent world. Everything that we do on a daily basis in class will be in response to this aim.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at any point in time if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to our communication over the coming months.
