We'll be staying on the local scene for a while (Westchester /Playa del Rey) -- but this posting is really for anyone concerned about how we are educating our children. Race to Nowhere, the powerful documentary that focuses on America's over achievement culture and how it affects our children and our schools -- will be screening :
Wednesday, May 25, 2011 - 6:30 p.m
Open Magnet Charter School
Address: 5540 W 77th Street, Los Angeles, California
Sponsor: Friends of the Open Magnet Charter School
Tickets are $10 each in advance and $15 each at the door.
There will be a discussion panel led by the school principal, two teachers, a progressive educational consultant and an administrator for a traditional, highly successful public high school. Books mentioned in the film will be available for sale.
Please join us and spread the word to the parents in your school community to help increase awareness of the film's message and end the race to nowhere.
