​Film Synopsis
For decades, the 'University for all' agenda has created a no-win choice for highschool graduates: take on the risk and expense of university degree or work a low-wage job.

But in an economically-challenged US community, one education leader is demonstrating the immense power of career-based learning - not as a last-chance resort for some, but as foundational for all.

​This film explores the complicated history of the Western Education System that has led to career prep being neglected in favor of a test-heavy, high-stress "university for all" philosophy, and offers up an alternate vision that places students at the center of their learning.

Get exposed to a reality, where students explore diverse careers, collaborate, and master traditional and new-economy skills, offering an inspiring vision of kids finding joy in their learning, as they create purposeful, prosperous future paths.

​In an age of unprecedented technological change, Multiple Choice examines our fundamental beliefs about the honor and dignity of work, and challenges us to ask, in a world dominated by computer intelligence, what is our human edge? How can we future-proof our kids and our communities?
