Helmed by the gifted Randa Haines (Children of a Lesser God, The Doctor), the inspirational drama The Ron Clark Story tells the real-life tale of Clark (Matthew Perry), a teacher from upstate New York who moves to Manhattan and re-instills courage and hope into the lives of many down-and-out students.

His star pupils include a young girl forced to both attend school and care for her siblings and a graffiti-prone young man who rechannels his energies into more traditional painting with Clark's encouragement. In the end, even when pneumonia threatens to keep Clark down, he refuses to let it. Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters) and Hannah Hodson co-star; Granada America produced.

This is a quality movie which tells an inspiring story about life with its heart wrenching struggles and successes. More than anything it reveals the truth about how being a teacher is a calling not a job. This is a movie about connections. The connection between a teacher and his students, a teacher, as a person, and his students' parent... and a connection with the teacher and his inner compass. A must see!!
