Waiting for Superman - MustSeeMovie

http://www.waitingforsuperman.com/


Do we have failing schools because of poverty or do we have poverty because of our failing schools?


Waiting for "Superman" is a Documentary that challenges the public school system by showing how schools are failing our kids and how to make a difference. 


Seriously, go see this movie now. 


There are some really amazing teachers but there are a lot of really bad ones out there that are secure in their jobs (tenure and unions) and are wasting the children's time. The movie follows 4 students from k-9 in their quest (and sometimes failure) to get a better education.


I left the movie theatre just saying "wow" over and over again.
