Movie Screening: “No Small Matter”
The Alliance for Early Childhood’s Board of Directors invites our community to a private viewing of film “No Small Matter” on Wednesday, October 16, 2019 at 9:30am at North Shore Country Day School. Parking is extremely limited; please carpool.
“No Small Matter” is a feature-length documentary film and national engagement campaign that brings public attention to this vital question by sharing powerful stories and stunning truths about the human capacity for early intelligence and the potential for quality early care and education to benefit America’s social and economic future. This multifaceted project reveals how our country is raising its youngest citizens, why making the most of this time in their lives is so crucial, and most importantly, what we can do to change the perception of when learning begins.
