EDUCATION
NJAHS Education Program provides students the tools
to prepare themselves as informed citizens in a constitutional
democracy. The study of the Japanese American internment is one that all
students should reflect upon and their shared
responsibility to protect the rights of all individuals at all
times. Particularly in times of crisis, they may be called upon to make
difficult decisions that may affect their lives and those of others. In
making such critical decisions, they should be free of prejudice,
possess an understanding of due process, and become aware of the
constitutional and human rights of all people. Several
states and their school districts have mandated February 19th
as the Day of Remembrance to recall the lessons of the Japanese
American internment and to provide appropriate instruction on the subject. NJAHS educational programs are funded in part by the California
Civil Liberties Public Education Project. CLASS
