Everyone please take the time to check out this movie...it's so mind opening to what kids r going through today...makes me feel really lucky to have had the privilege to go to many good schools n to have had some very wonderful teachers.

Watched a while ago.. Seeing it again, and damn it, it's still gut-wrenching :/

Really good. Teachers have it good and apparently they take advantage of it.

Our system is broken :-( how can we fix it? Great documentary. It made me cry at the end :-( sniff, sniff

This movie didn't tell me anything I didn't already know and yet it presents everything in such a powerful way that I can't help but rave about it!

We need to demolish the teacher union.

Should have gotten around to watching this a while ago....

Awesome documentary on the sad state of our public school system. I also recommend the John Stossel special "Stupid in America" which covers many of these topics as well... more

Wow, this is depressing.

yeah, probably not the most rest-inducing, but I need to see it

"Our schools haven't changed, but the world around them has."

Finally watching this documentary. Pretty powerful stuff.

Really goos look into the struggling education system. Feeling fortunate for where i live!!

I've heard a lot about this Docu-Film....Let's see if its good.

I've heard a lot about this film, both positive and negative. It really centers on charter schools/vouchers as the solution the America's education woes. What I'd like to know is what teachers'... more

I've heard a lot about this film, both positive and negative. It really centers on charter schools/vouchers as the solution the America's education woes. What I'd like to know is what teachers' unions advocate as an alternative.

So sad that a boy has to go to boarding school for a chance at a better life.

Utterly heartbreaking watching the kids finding out whether they were chosen for charter school lotteries.

I'm gonna reference this for my next paper. Great documentary :)

Just started this movie.

American kids rank one of the lowest in math but the highest in confidence. I think I found the reason Reality shows are so popular.

Good movie a tad overrated BUT definetly a documentary most people should watch

Rica said I had to watch this documentary, and for good reason... EVERYONE with kids in school should watch it!

American education at its worst. Now how do we fix it

Finally getting a chance to watch this.

My first Netfilx streaming pic. Couldn't get it to load forevah.

I'm so frustrated for the kids in our country right now. As a teacher, I know I try to do the best job I can, but I can do better... We all can!
