The World in Claire's Classroom

documentary

Fascinating look at the workings of a small elementary school in Vermont which is blessed by a savvy, saintly teacher. People often look nostalgically at the old one-room schoolhouse...especially compared to the oversized, dehumanized examples today...but in fact their effectiveness depended entirely on the quality of the teachers. If you had a good one you got a good start. If not...well...

solid, engaging documentary.
