Old Colony Montessori School Presents "Most Likely To Succeed"

February 8, 2016 - Hingham, MA - “Most Likely To Succeed”, the highly-acclaimed documentary about education and curriculum reform in the 21st century, explores compelling new approaches that could change the teaching and learning process for students in the United States.

Hingham’s Old Colony Montessori School (OCMS) is offering south shore residents a unique opportunity to view the film and participate in a facilitated discussion about the complex topics presented and examined throughout the feature-length movie.

Presented by OCMS, and open to the public, the film will be shown on Thursday, February 25, 2016 at 6:30 pm a Black Rock Country Club (located at 19 Clubhouse Drive in Hingham, Massachusetts). Tickets are $20 each and include the post-film discussion and food service. Tickets can be purchased online by clicking here.

“Most Likely To Succeed” has been called “a message all Americans need to hear, and desperately test” (Huffington Post) and urges parents and educators to stop evaluating student’s progress solely on test scores and, instead, focus on instilling in students creative problem-solving, real learning, and a true joy of discovery. The film also offers a re-imagining of what quality education could and should be in the future.
