To
educators, Washington Metropolitan High School (DC Met) is an alternative
school with a devoted staff. To district leaders, it is a failure. To many of
the school's students, it is home-a safe haven from sometimes unsparingly
difficult lives.
Whatever
one's vantage, 180 Days: A Year inside an American High School provides an
intimate portrait of this fledgling school's day-to-day stories, condensing a
full school-180 days-into four hours (2 two-hour episodes). With a dynamic and
charismatic young principal and five remarkable kids at the center of the
story, 180 Days invites viewers in for an unprecedented firsthand look at life
inside of a school that tries to meet the needs of some of our nation's most
challenged students.
