Turning Point Youth Ministry presents: Race to Nowhere
Featuring the heartbreaking stories of young people across the country who have been pushed to the brink, educators who are burned out and worried that students aren’t developing the skills they need, and parents who are trying to do what’s best for their kids.
Race to Nowhere points to the silent epidemic in our schools: cheating has become commonplace, students have become disengaged, stress-related illness, depression and burnout are rampant, and young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired.
All parents and youth are invited to a showing of this movie on February 8th at 7:00 pm in the Fellowship Hall.
A small panel discussion will immediately follow the film.
