Join us for an impactful evening at the Davis Theater in Lincoln Square for a special screening of the powerful documentary Left Behind, a film that explores the often invisible struggles of students who face literacy challenges—and the systemic gaps that fail to support them.
Following the film, stay for a live virtual Q&A with the director, Anna Toomey, offering a unique opportunity to go deeper into the stories, intentions, and calls to action behind the film.
This event is open to everyone:
Parents of students with literacy struggles
Teachers eager to better understand and support their students
School and district leaders seeking meaningful change
Professionals searching for insight
Students hoping to grow in empathy and understanding
All proceeds from the evening will benefit Redwood Schools, a Chicago-based nonprofit supporting students with dyslexia and other learning differences through specialized, evidence-based education across the Chicagoland area.
Come be part of a community that’s learning, growing, and taking action—together.
