Screening of THE LOTTERY June 8th
Posted on 01. Jun, 2010 by KB in Posts
Be sure to come see the highly anticipated film documentary, The Lottery (see media kit here: LOTTERYPressPacket_021710 ), next Tuesday, June 8th at Harkins Northfield Theater. The documentary features four families from the Bronx and Harlem who are hoping to win “the lottery,” obtaining a spot for their child in the Harlem Success Academy (a charter school), one of New York’s most successful schools. The film focuses on the education reform movement and why public education can be transformed to help every child succeed, no matter race or socioeconomic standing. If you are interested in the topic of education, charter schools or school reform, this film would be very beneficial to watch.
A panel discussion will take place after the movie. Panelists include Lt. Gov. Barbara O’Brien, Speaker of the House Terrance Carroll, Denver School Board President Nate Easley, and Denver School of Science and Technology CEO Bill Kurtz. The panel will be moderated by Education Reform Now’s Van Schoales.
