This week, January
25-31 is National School Choice Week.
As a special
event, Faith Lutheran School is hosting a Movie Night and Ice Cream Social on
Friday, January 30th from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.
While the children
enjoy the Disney Classic, The Three Caballeros, the parents will view
and have the opportunity to discuss
The Ticket, a new documentary film that addresses the
question "What is school choice?"
School choice is
proliferating in the United States, fostering innovations in teaching and
advancements in learning. It's based on a simple premise: No one educational
model can possibly serve every kind of student, and so parents and children
deserve the freedom to choose the schools that work best for them.
The Ticket takes viewers on a historic whistle
stop train tour across the United States, showing different forms of school
choice along the way and the children that they serve.
Following the movies
we will enjoy ice cream and fellowship. Attending the Volleyball Rally? You are
still welcome to come and join us for ice cream and fellowship afterwards.
Come join is for a fun
and informative evening with the school family!
