Have You Heard heads to Lawrence, MA, the poorest city in the state, to meet some students who've spent the last 6 months talking to their peers across the city about the kinds of schools they COULD have. Their verdict: it's way past time for Lawrence students to have a voice. As one student leader puts it: "if we don't start leading things on our own, we're going to turn into robots." Their perspective provides an eye-openin (and ear-opening) glimpse into how students feel about the state of their schools today. And don't miss the short film they made called "What is Education?"
