"The Triumph" -- Ron Clark Story

This is a seriously must-see movie! Impactors (Youth Fellowship) watched this movie on our Movie Time! on the 29th January. Its super cool and funny! Here's a short intro:

The Ron Clark Story follows the inspiring tale of an energetic, creative and idealistic young teacher who leaves his small North Carolina hometown to teach in a New York City public school. Through his passionate use of special rules for his classroom, highly innovative teaching techniques and an undying devotion to his students and helping them cope with their problems, Clark is able to make a remarkable difference in the lives of his students.

Though the students in the story are only aged 12, but they have many different tough backgrounds. Mr. Clark used many different creative, innovative, even CRAZY ways to teach his class. There's a part where he made a deal that he'll drink a small carton of milk every 15 seconds as long as the class kept quiet, and his tactic actually worked because the kids wanted to see him puke! (Eww~)

Here's a sneak-peek of what he did in History class.


Ron Clark also has an academy, called The Ron Clark Academy.
Overall, this is a really inspiring and non-the-less entertaining movie.
