<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 20.8px;">**//The Water is Wide//** is based on Pat Conroy's book of the same title. This Emmy nominated movie recounts a year he spent teaching African-American children on a remote barrier island off the South Carolina coast in the late 1960s. Mr. Conroy was a young, naive, idealistic, and controversial schoolteacher who used his unconventional style to inspire the children and involve the entire community in their education. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 20.8px;">Starring Alfre Woodard and Jeff Hephner.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 20.8px;">NOTE: If you miss a day you are responsible to arrange a time to view what you missed. Another alternative is to find the movie on a streaming service such as Netflix and view it there. I cannot loan the DVD to students.
