School of Rock? Jack Black? Hmmmmm...now that is interesting.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Nope, Rock School - a documentary about a school that teaches kids how to be rockers. School Of Rock works too, though.

School of Rock is about a private school, so it makes it harder to answer some of the questions. Am looking at Music of the Heart and Rock School to see if either would fit.
Thanks so much for the suggestions. It is amazing how challenging it has been coming up with ideas that fit the assignment and I'm the only one of the team offering suggestions.

Plus isn't School of Rock little kids?
It's been an ongoing bone of contention within the school systems forever.
This shouldn't be, either. It makes me crazy that budgets are limited to the point where it seems like it has to be a choice between arts and sports, and actually kids should have both if they can physically do them.
Now, I'm Captain PickedLast, but graphic and performing arts are physical and there's a lot of right-brain stuff going on in sports (I'm not counting baseball statistics, obviously).
Anyway, my basic point is More Money For Schools.

Center Stage might be a good recent choice, though I'd go with Fame as the better movie of that ilk.

I'd put the kids in School of Rock at 11-13.

I'd be remiss if I didn't say: S4 of The Wire (starting Sunday).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
The Chorus is a great little movie, but the kids are elementary aged. Don't know if that makes a difference.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It took me a few blinks to realize this wasn't a suggestion for Suzi.
