A Second Chance to View "Race to Nowhere"


You may remember the North Penn Under Ten post back in April regarding the much talked about film, "Race to Nowhere" and the discussion that followed on NPUT's Facebook page. If you missed the screening in Ambler last Spring, here is your second chance!

“Race to Nowhere,” a documentary by Vicki Abeles, a concerned mother turned filmmaker, will be shown at Hatboro-Horsham High School on Tuesday at 7PM. Ms. Abeles aims her camera at "the culture of hollow achievement and pressure to perform that has invaded America's schools." She believes it is destroying our children's love of learning and feeding an epidemic of unprepared, disengaged, and unhealthy students. A discussion sponsored by "Be a Part of the Conversation" will follow the screening. discussion will follow at 8:30PM. The event is free and open to the public! For more information visit www.hhef.org, call (215) 420-5261, or visit the NPUT Calendar.


Think you might forget between now and Tuesday night? Worry not! Just keep checking the North Penn Under Ten Calendar everyday...and you'll never miss a thing! ;-)
