 Beautiful!!! Moving December 24, 2009
LeBaron Judkins (Montgomery, AL USA)
This is a wonderful movie (quality and all) that has a beautiful message attached not to spoil the movie but once you have seen this it will become very clear what life is all about. Given that this story is one that is very near and dear to me, I must say that this is a powerful movie and the information that is presented is one that will not be forgotten.
FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS!! November 15, 2009
Loves To Read (Twin Cities, MN USA)
This is the true story of Ron Clark, a teacher in rural North Carolina, who had a dream to teach in the toughest area of New York City. The dream wasn't just for himself, it was that indifferent and disadvantaged young boys and girls, against great odds, could become successful in life if only they could believe it was possible. Not only were the odds great against any of his students going beyond elementary school, the odds seemed even greater against Ron Clark making it through his first year of teaching in the toughest school in Harlem. But he had a dream and he was 'naive' enough and idealistic enough to believe he could reach that goal. While optimism and belief are essential, it is also helpful to have talent and Ron Clark is a very gifted and creative teacher. He was willing to experiment with various ways to reach this rebellious kids who wanted nothing to do with school or him. If making a fool of himself trying to 'double dutch' jump rope would get their attention, then so be it. The kids were more important than his ego. His relationships with parents should be an example for any teacher who really wants to make a difference with their students. This is one of those truly inspirational films and stories that comes along once in a great while. Not only has he helped students reach their potential but he has written a best selling book of classroom rules called THE ESSENTIAL 55 for teachers. We may not all have the same talents as Ron Clark but we can all be inspired to use what we have to the best of our ability and for the benefit of others. Put this at the top of the list.

Everything was as promised with the DVD. My only complaint is that it seemed to take longer for delivery than I expected with expedited shipping (almost 1.5 weeks!).
Great "true" public school teacher story November 2, 2009
L. Hunt (Citizen Of The World)
Well done, doesn't get boring, similar to "Lean On Me", another good one. Inspiring.
The Ron Clark Story October 26, 2009
Linda Huntington (Northcenrtral Ohio, USA)
What a fantastic movie and worth every cent I paid for it. Matthew Perry was beyond great as Ron Clark. It was one on the greatest movies I have every seen. I would have given it more than 5 stars if I could have. Although the whole movie was super, one of my favorite scenes was when Ron learned to double dutch just to gain the confidence of his students (which by the way he actually did learn to double dutch). I thought Stand and Deliver, Lean on Me and Take the Lead were exceptional movies but this one was one step up from those. Knowing that this was based on a true story and Matthew's acting sure brings it to the top. I have watched it many times since I purchased it and will continue to do so. It is well worth seeing.
