Burlington High School’s Resistance Day of Learning Field Trip
Since 2023, we have hosted an annual Resistance Day of Learning Field Trip at Ohavi Zedek Synagogue for Burlington High School with the goal to provide students with real world examples of resistance in the face of cultural erasure, specifically in Burlington, VT.
