"Flunked" is a full-length documentary designed to be both
informative and entertaining, without compromising the truth of the
crisis we are facing in education today.
Most people are well aware of the declining test scores and
competitiveness of the average American student, as well as myriad
other problems facing education today. However, complaining about
the problem, while easy to do, produces little productive results.
Instead, "Flunked" focuses on many of today’s schools nationwide
that are "getting it right"---attaining great results in terms of
college preparation, high test scores, and graduating competent
workers for tomorrow’s economy.Then, in the interest of sparking reform, "Flunked" examines how
and why those schools are excelling: great curricula, great
teachers, strong leaders, and a commitment to excel. This will not
be a hit piece on teachers’ unions or the existing public school
systems. Rather, it simply shows what is working throughout the
U.S. and what people nationwide need to know is available.In other words, "Flunked" is all about solutions.
