A Little Hope

In a 100% virtual Title 1 public school, these kids used whatever they had at home to produce and edit this short film. After-school Zoom meetings, class brainstorming and virtual instruction made it possible even without the technology and resources we would normally have at school. Although it’s not perfect, the love and effort it took to do this brought us closer together as a class and taught the students how to adapt and inspire in ways they did not know was possible.

Heroes don’t always look like Superman, Wonder Woman, or Iron Man, they can work in hospitals, fire departments, or even classrooms. With all the negativity around the world, we all deserve a hero. We need someone to give us inspiration and hope. Whoever your hero might be, whether it’s your mom, dad, or someone who you look up to, they are there to protect us from real-life evil and dangers. All heroes have one thing in common, they give us hope by making it known that they will overpower evil with their good hearts and kindness.
