Race to Nowhere
Monday, October 4 at 7:00pm
Tickets: $10 in advance or $15 at the door
A concerned mother turned filmmaker aims her camera at the high-stakes, high-pressure culture that has invaded our school and our children's live.  Race to Nowhere points to the silent epidemic in our schools: cheating has become commonplace; students are disengaged; stress-related illness and depression are rampant; and many young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired.  Race to Nowhere is a call to action for families, educations, and policy makers to challenge current assumptions on how to best prepare the youth of America to become healthy, bright, contributing and leading citizens.

"Another inconvenient truth" - George Lucas Educational Foundation

"Must-see documentary" - Patrick Bassett, President, National Association of Independent Schools
