Marva Collins: Excellence in Education (1982)
Inner city teacher tackles obstacles in education
9 July 2010
I am a teacher and I try to watch this movie before starting the next school year, just to keep focus on my goals. There are several good movies out there about the same subject matter, but this one really touched me to the core. A must see for all in education. In this movie she has to deal with not only struggles in the bureaucratic failing school systems, she also has to tackle personal problem in her home life as well as parents. This lady show courage as she perseveres to educate what most public school calls learning disabled children. The one the public schools threw away she lovingly and passionately educated. She poured her heart and soul into what she was doing to ensure that"no child was left behind".
