What about a classic, like To Sir with Love?

"Mr. Holland's Opus" is a really good one. The scene where his students
reunite to pay tribute to him is touching.

Don't forget Stand and Deliver (1988) w/ Edward James Olmos-our math
teachers' favorite film...

Does anyone have suggestions for movies/movie clips scenes that promote
school success?

 

So far, I have 

* Lean on Me - the testing scene(s)

* Akeelah and the Bee

 

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Karen
