After winning the March contest I used the Amazon gift card to purchase the documentary 'Waiting for Superman'.
The documentary did not change my views on the public school system as much as is gave me a better perspective of inner city poverty. I can see how it is not so easy to make the right choices when only bad options lie in front of you.

I just watched that movie earlier this week. Mostly it confirmed what I already knew about the public school system and especially unions. Since I belong to AFT, I got a lot paraphernalia in the mail opposing this movie when it first came out - their opposition was very enlightening! I also know people that believe that since 98% (I don't know the actual percentage) of kids all go to public school, the system must be the right system. (hmmm.....I noticed you didn't actually state your view on the public school system) I think they could use some enlightenment by watching this movie.
