Recently, Paul Argiewicz of Paddock Lake came to Brighton School and spoke to fifth through eighth grade students regarding his personal experiences as a Jew in Poland during World War II. Also appearing with Argiewicz was Deanne Joseph, a local resident and author of the book, 176520 based on. Argiewicz’s life. Students were excited to engage with “living history†in the form of a person who lived during a horrific and tumultuous time in human history. Argiewicz and. Joseph patiently detailed life in Europe both during and after the war enabling students to vicariously experience a time and place very distant from their own.
