PRESS PASS TV
"Standardized Failure"

Press Pass TV is a youth adult partnership organization whose mission is to
produce socially responsible video journalism, which promotes a more diverse
media, empowers communities and increases civic engagement. They work with
middle and high school students to create news stories that tell of
community power and connect issues in our community to root causes. By
providing an alternative to the repetitive one-sidedness of mainstream
media, they connect community members to pathways for action.

In Standardized Failure, Press Pass TV partnered with the City School to go
inside the dangerous affects that the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment
System has on youth and schools. They also just created a discussion and
action guide to accompany the video. They will use both to discuss solutions
and next steps.
