Where are they now?
Summary:
During World War II, Irena Sendler, a Polish Catholic social worker, organized a rescue network of fellow social workers to save 2,500 Jewish children from certain death in the Warsaw ghetto. After the war her heroism was suppressed by communist Poland and remained virtually unknown for 60 years-- until three
high
school
girls from an economically depressed rural
school
district in southeast
Kansas
stumbled upon a tantalizing reference to Sendler's rescues, which they fashioned into a history project.
