Race to Nowhere points to the silent epidemic in our schools: cheating has become commonplace; students are disengaged; stress-related illness and depression are rampant; and many young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired. Race to Nowhere is a call to action for families, educators, and policy makers to challenge current assumptions on how to best prepare the youth of America to become healthy, bright, contributing and leading citizens.Advanced Registration for this event is online @http://rtnmontclairhigh.eventbrite.com/When: November 30, 2010, 7:30 pm*Where: The Montclair High School Auditorium, 100 Chestnut St., Montclair, NJ*Doors open at 7:00 pm
