"The Ron Clark Story" (2006) NR

Idealistic young teacher Ron Clark (Matthew Perry, in an Emmy-nominated role) is full of hope as he leaves the familiarity of his hometown for New York City's provocative and volatile inner-city public school system. Clark's fearless devotion and fresh approach to learning is his key to unlocking the chains of ignorance that bind his students. Randa Haines directs this Emmy-nominated biographical drama based on the inspiring true life of the innovative educator.

I love movies that are based on true stories. This one is very exceptional...the educator Ron Clark is an amazing, relentless advocator for his extremely difficult students. He has the gift and ability to change lives. Matthew Perry is amazing in this film.
