Flunked Coming to Boise

Free Screening of Flunked, narrated by Joe Mantegna

The exciting new education reform documentary Flunked, narrated by award-winning actor Joe Mantegna, will be presented in partnership with 670 KBOI radio on Tuesday, August 26th, 7:00 PM at:

The Reel Theatre
6950 W. State Street
Boise, ID 83714

There will be a live broadcast with Nate Shelman from KBOI from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM before the movie. After the movie, there will be a short Q&A segment.

For years we’ve read the stories: Results of national and international educational aptitude tests show that the average American student is unable to compete academically. In short, public education is failing.

Flunked highlights the common threads of successful education: strong leadership, high standards, excellent teachers, and solid curricula. By focusing on schools that are successfully applying these principles, Flunked sends a message loud and clear: Parents, students, principals, and teachers do not have to settle for mediocrity in their own schools!

Flunked just won Best Educational Documentary at the Bayou City Inspirational Film Festival in Houston.

Executive Producer Steven Maggi will be in attendance. This screening is FREE and open to the public.
