Free Screening of the Documentary 'Race to Nowhere'

The HHH PTA COUNCIL PARENT RESOURCE CENTER invites parents and community members to attend a screening of the documentary RACE TO NOWHERE.

RACE TO NOWHERE is a close-up look at the pressures on today's students, offering an intimate view of lives packed with activities, leaving little room for down-time or family time. Parents today are expected to raise high-achieving children, who are good at everything: academics, sports, the arts, community-service. The film tackles the tragic side of our often achievement-obsessed culture, with interviews that explore the hidden world of over-burdened schedules, student suicide, academic cheating, young people who have checked out.  

Panel discussion with HHH Educators immediately following the movie.
