DOCUMENTARY SCREENING: Redeemer School is hosting a screening of the hard-hitting educational documentary “Race to Nowhere” in the Redeemer auditorium, 1046 Miller Street, at 7:00 pm on Thursday, September 29th.  There will be a brief panel discussion after the movie regarding high-pressure, high-stakes culture that has invaded our schools and the children’s lives.  Consider joining us for the poignant look at these educational concerns facing students, parents and educators today.  Anyone in the community is invited, but seating is limited, so reserve your free tickets by going to www.redeemerschool.org or contacting the school office at 724-9460.
