"Class Dismissed shows parents a glimpse into the future of education. Everyone concerned with education would benefit by watching this film." - John Taylor Gatto, Former New York State Teacher of the Year and author Frustrated with the traditional school system, a family in Los Angeles pulls their two children out of one of the highest-rated schools in the area and takes their education into their own hands. In the quest to better their children’s lives, they must overcome long-standing assumptions about education and face the social ramifications of their bold decision. Class Dismissed challenges viewers to take a fresh look at what it means to be educated in the 21st century and offers a radical new way of thinking about the process of learning.       Jeremy's newest film is Self-Taught: Stories from Self-Directed Learners (2019).
