“Join us for a free indoor screening of the 2021 documentary film Big Dreams in Umatilla. Concessions will be provided.
Description: Kids who grow up in the poorest communities throughout America are surrounded by limits. Money is tight. Work is scarce. Education is poor. And college? That’s just a dream. At first glance, Umatilla, Oregon, fits this stereotypical profile. But, look a little closer, and you’ll find a school superintendent who refuses to see limits, a community that invests in its schools, and kids who excel when given the opportunity. This is a story about a robotics team and how it united a town and taught its kids they could and should reach for the stars.
