In late April 2026, Teaching for Change partnered with Filmfest DC: The Washington, DC International Film Festival for a 15th year to bring filmmakers into D.C. classrooms to share some of their films.
On April 9, 2026, Capital City Public Charter School juniors took over teaching duties and facilitated interactive workshops for their peers at the annual Capital City Youth Justice Summit.
Teaching for Change is partnering with Filmfest DC: The Washington, D.C. International Film Festival for a fourteenth year to spread the word about the international film festival and to bring films and filmmakers for some films into D.C. classrooms. Students gain a lot from viewing the documentaries, preparing questions, and discussing the film with the visitors. Filmfest DC is offering a limited number of opportunities for filmmakers to visit a class after the class has viewed their film April 20-24.
