WAITING FOR SUPERMAN (PG, 102 minutes), is this Saturday’s free movie-showing at the Puyallup Public Library. WAITING FOR SUPERMAN is a powerful, absorbing and controversial documentary about public education in America.
The film undertakes an exhaustive review of America's educational system - a system which results in poor test scores in arithmetic and reading, and a declining percentage of high school students that graduate into college. Teacher unions, charter schools and the use of lotteries to determine which students get into magnet schools - all come under the scathing scrutiny of the film director’s eye.
WAITING FOR SUPERMAN will screen in the library’s South Meeting Room at 2:00 pm on Saturday, January 28th.
