An Education Version to Reach Classrooms Across the U.S., Mexico and Worldwide
Watch this 7 minute education film preview.
IN PRODUCTION NOW – The 45 minute Classroom Version of “RAMON RISING” to
- Inspire first-generation students of all backgrounds to dare dream of a better life.
- Convincingly debunk negative myths and stereotypes.
- Remind all members of society, including parents, educators, teachers and staff to value the human potential of all, no matter their background or income level.
- Demonstrate that all may overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges.
- Shine a spotlight on inequities for minorities and low-income students at all levels of education. For example, Black and Hispanic students continue to perform lower than whites and Asians on standardized tests and in STEM studies. | Many high-achieving low-income students do not attend a selective college, even when they’re qualified. | The least-gifted children of high-income parents graduate from college at higher rates than the most-gifted children of low-income parents.
