Description

Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month Films: Stand and Deliver (1988 - PG), please join us for the celebration in watching the movie.

Edward James Olmos stars as Jaime Escalante in this inspirational true story about a teacher and the unmotivated East Los Angeles high school students who he inspires, badgers, threatens and humors into learning the most demanding of all math sciences--calculus. But the accomplishment is so utterly fantastic that the students are accused of cheating. Given a choice to accept the allegation or retake an extremely demanding examination to prove themselves, the students decide to Stand and Deliver!

This program is free and open to the public and provided by the Friends of the Cinco Ranch Branch Library. For more information, call 281-395-1311.
