Summary
A Tale of Two Schools was produced for ERASE Racism by award-winning filmmaker David Van Taylor. It follows three high school senior boys, one African American student from Wyandanch High school, and an interracial pair of freinds from Rockville Centre Southside High School, a diverse, majority white district. The film shows in vivid human terms how context determines educational experiences and outcomes--irrespective of the student's motivation and attitude
