Epitomy of "Class" - Sidney Poitier
An outstanding performance by Sidney Poitier in this 1966 film. Sidney stars as Mark Thackeray. An engineering job market hasn't panned out for him, and he somewhat reluctantly takes a teaching position in a working-class London high school. His students are out of control and must be tamed. Ultimately, we can smile wondering who learned the most - the students or the teacher.

The theme song, To Sir With Love, is performed by LuLu, who also portrays one of the students.

I think all families with children ages 10 and up would benefit by setting aside some time to share this movie.

Teachers Can Make a Difference
This movie stars Sidney Poiter as an engineer who couldn't find an engineering job, so he took a teaching job in the interim. As he gets to know the students, he learns as much from them as he teaches them. The students start out harrassing him at every turn, then he finds a way to get through to them. My favorite part of the movie is the way he starts with an academic focus then switches to real life skills the students will need when they leave school in a few months. In the end he does receive an offer for a terriffic engineering job.
