We're expecting an in-person attendance of 500 and an online attendance in the thousands. Students and teachers will be presenting their projects from 1pm-5pm EST; these include a documentary on special education, a documentary about student awareness of genocide that highlights one class's work with Darfur is Dying, a student-written bilingual play about the immigration experience, and public service announcements on social issues, among others. You can participate in person or online. In-person attendees will be able to see these presentations live, and online attendees will be able to see streaming presentations and leave comments for teachers and students.
