Race to Nowhere: The Discussion Continues

Please join Rhoda H. Alekel, L.C.S.W., B.C.D., psychotherapist, and Vincyne LaCapra, former LPS guidance counselor, for a follow-up discussion about Race to Nowhere, a powerful documentary about the high-stakes, high-pressure culture for our school-age children and their parents, which 550 people saw at Livingston High School last month.  

  • Explore your reactions to the movie, define what success looks like for your family, and understand your expectations for your children’s academic performance.
  • Discover important coping techniques for you and your children so that you can establish your priorities as a family and reduce stress.
