Join Hamlin Robinson School for a special screening and discussion of the acclaimed film, The Big Picture. Open to the whole community!

THE BIG PICTURE: RETHINKING DYSLEXIA, focuses on a dyslexic high school student who pursues admission to a leading college– a challenge for a boy who didn’t learn to read until 4th grade. Additional accounts of the dyslexic experience from children, experts, and iconic leaders at the top of their fields, help us to understand that dyslexia, a persistent problem with learning to read, can be as great a gift as it sometimes is an obstacle.
