Thank you CSAA! This is so wonderful to see posted on the "Report Card" Blog. The stars of this film are the amazing preservationists, the former teachers and students, the artists and craftsmen and everyone who played a part in rehabilitating this educational icon! We were honored to document this inspirational story and are excited to share it with everyone at the premiere September 23!

    Our challenge is not to educate the children we used to have or want to have, but to educate the children who come to the schoolhouse door.
