7000 students used the Washington State Holocaust Education Resource Center's Holocaust Teaching Trunks and classroom sets of books in the 2008-2009 school year!

This was the first year the classroom sets of books have been available - they were met with enthusiasm. A classroom set of books includes 30 copies of a title, a related dvd, a teacher guide, and related activities for the classroom. Titles available are All But My Life, Diary of Anne Frank, Hana's Suitcase, Night, and Number the Stars.

16 Holocaust teaching trunks criss-cross the state of Washington throughout the year. 81 schools used the trunks and classroom sets this year!
