Film Screening and Discussion: Beyond Measure
Join us for a screening and moderated discussion of Beyond Measure (80 minutes), a film that asks us to reconsider the purpose of education, putting personal growth over test scores, inquiry over mimicry, and passion over rankings. In this documentary film, a follow-up to Race to Nowhere, director Vicki Abeles travels to public schools across the country as they aim to create a more equitable, empowering, student-centered education culture from the ground up. By putting research and innovative models into practice, groundbreaking school communities are transforming how and what they teach. *Moderated by Nic Voge, Senior Associate Director of The McGraw Center.
