Heading in the Right Direction

Beschreibung
In 1995, a group of courageous educators, parents and children came together to create a school with a simple - perhaps simplistic - assumption: that things that often alienate people from one another - ethnicity, skin color, socioeconomic class - might instead be tools that bring people together. Referred to for years as "e;a social experiment,"e; New Roads School in Santa Monica, CA became an example of what is possible when people from different cultural groups come together to create a community - to learn together, play together, solve problems together, To this day, New Roads remains a beacon for educators and others: an invitation to students, their teachers, their parents and those from the larger community to show up as who they are, join hands, and make the world a better place for all of us.
