The Ron Clark Story - Summary and Learnings

Updated: Dec 6, 2023

I recently watched a heartwarming movie called The Ron Clark Story, and it's based on a real story about a teacher, Ron Clark, who tries to rotate around the toughest, naughtiest sixth grade class in New York. It is a story about going after dreams, overcoming challenges, and building relationships. We may not all be teachers, but this movie can be insightful and inspirational for all of us.

    Last month, I went on what was technically a business trip.

    That term, “business trip” has such a stale, stuffy connotation. It conjures up images of hotel ballroom PowerPoint lectures, flimsy lettuce-heavy sandwiches and burnt coffee, the Kubrick stare in the eyes of every needy peon in sight.

    Not the case with this business trip, my friends. Far from it.

    One cannot step through the doors of the Ron Clark Academy— located just outside downtown Atlanta— without throwing their preconceptions (about teaching, about children, about human nature, and especially about “business trips”) immediately out the window.

    This is because a visit to the Ron Clark Academy is no ordinary business trip.

    Mr. Ronald Clark has a certain reputation in the planet of education. Much like Eva Moskowitz, the militant chief of NYC’s Victory Academies, Clark is as widely esteemed as he is scoffed at.
