Most Likely to Succeed Showing on Dec. 8
|
The Neenah High School Arete Academy is hosting a free public showing of the film, Most Likely to Succeed, with a discussion to follow, on Thursday, December 8 at 6:30 p.m. in the Shattuck Middle School Auditorium. The acclaimed film offers an inspiring look at what students and teachers are capable of—if we have the vision and courage to transform our schools.
The purpose of this event is to foster meaningful discussion among educators, administrators, parents and students about how current obstacles can be overcome and steps towards change can be taken on a local level. Born out of these conversations is a community-wide commitment to moving forward; transformational initiatives are undertaken and real change is ignited.
Please use this link to register for the event.
