The Reading & Rhythm Program is featured in a short film funded by The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and was aired on PBS.

The Reading & Rhythm program brings back the joy of teaching for teachers AND the excitement of learning for students! "Now I feel smart" declares an LA-based middle school student. The merging of rhythm into the learning process helps transform negative energy into a positive force in the classroom.
