Margaretville Central School -

On Monday, October 19, 2026, Margaretville Central School will welcome the Mobile Museum of Tolerance (MMOT) for a day of interactive educational programming for students in grades 7–12, focused on Holocaust education, digital media literacy, and the power of individuals to stand against prejudice.

During its visit, the Mobile Museum of Tolerance will present two signature educational modules: Combat Hate, a digital media literacy workshop, and The Power of Ordinary People, which explores how individual choices can challenge prejudice and make a difference in the world.

Through interactive workshops and facilitated discussions, students will examine the lessons of the Holocaust, consider how individual decisions can shape history, and develop critical skills for recognizing and responding to misinformation and hate. The programming encourages students to connect historical lessons to present-day challenges and consider how their own actions can help build more respectful and inclusive communities.

The Mobile Museum of Tolerance is a national educational initiative of the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles. Designed as a classroom on wheels, it brings educator-led workshops directly to schools and communities, using lessons from history to encourage empathy, critical thinking, and meaningful dialogue.

By bringing these learning experiences directly to Margaretville Central School, the program provides students in grades 7–12 with an opportunity to reflect on the importance of personal responsibility, standing up for others, and the role each person can play in creating a more inclusive school and community.

Margaretville Central School is pleased to provide students with opportunities to engage with these important topics and explore how the lessons of history remain relevant today.
