Beyond Measure Film Debut in OC

April 14, 2016

Concerned about your overscheduled, exhausted, stressed out student? Come see an inspiring film showing that change has started. On Tuesday, April 19th, a revolutionary new documentary called "Beyond Measure: What Counts Can't be Counted" will debut at two Orange County locations: Regency South Coast Village Theater in Costa Mesa at 9:30 a.m., and Sea Country Community Center in Laguna Niguel, at 7 p.m.​ 

This important film is a follow up to Director Vicki Abeles' eye-opening "Race to Nowhere" documentary and highlights innovative schools on the cutting-edge of education reform. They demonstrate that it is possible to transcend outmoded, test-driven education policies and create more equitable, empowering, student-centered schools. 

​Director Vicki Abeles will be in attendance at both screenings and will be signing her companion book also called Beyond Measure: Rescuing an overscheduled, overtested, underestimated generation. Following the screenings, there is an opportunity for a meet and greet with Vicki on Wednesday, April 20th at 10 a.m. in Laguna Niguel, which helps her nonprofit foundation further this important work.

Tickets can be purchased at beyondmeasurefilm.com/orange-county/ or beyondmeasurefilmcom. Tickets are free for teachers and school administrators.

Regency South Coast Village Theater is at 1561 W Sunflower Avenue in Costa Mesa.

Sea Country Community Center is at 24602 Aliso Creek Road in Laguna Niguel.
