U.S. House of Representatives Republican Leader John Boehner and Representative John Kline, Senior Republican of the House Education and Labor Committee, will present today the U.S Capitol debut of "Not As Good As You Think -- The Myth of the Middle Class School" featuring the accomplishments of the CUSD Recall Committee.

"Not As Good As You Think: The Myth of the Middle Class School" is a groundbreaking documentary that shatters the myth that "good" schools located in "nice" neighborhoods are shielded from the education crisis that pervades schools in poor, urban areas. The CUSD Recall Committee’s successful five year campaign to bring badly needed reform to the Capistrano Unified School District is prominently featured in this movie -- as an example of just how badly broken the American public school system can be in one of the country’s most affluent areas…and how tremendous improvements and reforms can be achieved by dedicated, vigilant citizen action and oversight.
