There is no direct link. During the First Crusade there were severe outbreaks of violence against Jews, especially in the Rhineland. It is sometimes said that this marked the start of an ongoing "Christian", or at least "churchy" tradition of violence against the Jews. A very small number of historians see the Holocaust as the culmination of a tradition that began in 1096. Nevertheless, the First Crusade saw the start of widespread mob violence as an integral part of the crusades ... After that, no crusade was complete without a massacre of Jews, and when Richard I was crowned as a Crusader King of England in 1189, mobs celebrated in London, York and elsewhere by massacring the Jews.

Are schools refusing to teach about the Holocaust?

There are a very few schools in the Western world that have removed the Holocaust from their curriculum, and there are news reports about individual teachers that won't teach it (especially in the UK), either because they are uncomfortable or because they feel pressured. However, the vast majority of schools in the U.S. and other Western countries have strong Holocaust curriculums. I know that some Southern U.S. communities are being pressured to back away from teaching about racism, slavery and subjects uncomfortable to some Christians like the Crusades, but these developments are being fought by educators. Of course, schools in countries run by Holocaust deniers aren't teaching about the Holocaust, but they are getting a skewed view of most of history, not just the Holocaust.
