Waiting for Superman
I recently saw the movie "Waiting for Superman" - yes I am late to the party. But in case you have not seen it let me recommend it to you as a highly revealing and disappointing view into the way the American school system runs, stuck in a system that feels so wrong in so many ways. Watch it. And visit the Waiting For Superman Web Site.
Here is the IMdb info for Waiting for Superman. Here is the Netflix link for the DVD.
