"RACE TO NOWHERE :
“Through A Jewish Lens”

RACE TO NOWHERE is a call to families, educators, experts and policy makers to examine current assumptions on how to best prepare the youth of America to become the healthy, bright,
contributing and leading citizens in the 21st century.

There will be a panel discussion immediately following the film.

This remarkable documentary shines a light on the price our kids pay for this “race to nowhere.”
Cheating is commonplace, stress relatedillness, depression and burnout are rampant, and ironically,
young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired. Featuring the
heartbreaking stories of young people who have been pushed to the brink and educators who
are burned out and worried that students aren’t developing the skills needed for the global economy,

RACE TO NOWHERE points to the silent epidemic running rampant in our schools.
