Most Likely to Succeed Documentary

The Film Society of Summit presents, Most Likely to Succeed, to be followed by discussion with Superintendent June Change For most of the last century, entry-level jobs were plentiful and college was an affordable path to a fulfilling career. That world no longer exists. Most Likely to Succeed looks into the history of education, revealing the growing shortcomings of our school model in today\'s innovative world. The film follows students in a school created to prepare graduates for the innovation era. There, over the course of a school year, ninth graders take on ambitious, project-based challenges that promote critical skills rather than rote memorization and, indirectly, bring to life new approaches that revolutionize school as we know it, and give our students a fighting chance in a dynamic, extremely competitive economy. The film explores compelling new approaches that aim to revolutionize teaching as we know it. www.smarttix.com for advance tickets
