Luigi Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 PBS will be airing a documentary on St. Benedict's Prep, located at Newark Abbey."The Rule": See how the Benedictine monks of Newark Abbey, in the heart of one of America's most dangerous cities, are able to achieve amazing success with the most vulnerable population: inner city African American and Latino teenage males. While Newark, NJ, with a high poverty rate of 32%, has an abysmal high school graduation rate, St. Benedict's Prep has a near 100% COLLEGE ACCEPTANCE rate. The film details how their "recipe for success" follows the 6th century Rule of Saint Benedict and how this rule can serve as a model for whole cities nationwide. Check your local listings! It's airing in some areas starting tomorrow night.http://www.pbs.org/program/the-rule/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
