Kittatinny Education Association
Sussex County educator Mary Houghtaling from the Kittatinny Regional School District was awarded a $6,513 continuation grant entitled Expand and Sustain the Holocaust and Genocide Research Center II. This project expands and strengthens the initial program by building on a successful first-year infrastructure launch. The project deepens student engagement through multimedia production, experiential learning, and community outreach. Students will produce podcasts and digital content amplifying survivor testimony and research, participate in immersive field trips, and engage with expert guest speakers. The Center will also host visiting student groups and present student-developed programming to neighboring districts. Embedded within the curriculum and supported by partnerships with national organizations, the project promotes historical literacy, empathy, and civic responsibility while ensuring long-term sustainability in a rural school community. This project was designated as the Visions Credit Union Grant for Social Justice.
