1. Get out of here! Scram!Copy !req
2. C'mon!Copy !req
3. Shut her up!Copy !req
4. What are you looking at? I want
you in front!Copy !req
5. Move it, Chepe!Copy !req
6. I'm coming.Copy !req
7. Three... Two...Copy !req
8. One...Copy !req
9. Let's go!Copy !req
10. Out in front, Chepe!Copy !req
11. Shoes on, now.Copy !req
12. - I'm not telling you again. -
I'm coming!Copy !req
13. Hurry up, everyone.Copy !req
14. What are you doing?Copy !req
15. Chepe?Copy !req
16. Chepe!Copy !req
17. Two besos, two chocolate
conchas,Copy !req
18. and two ojos de buey. How many
is that?Copy !req
19. A dozen.Copy !req
20. Today is a big day, why not make
it two dozen?Copy !req
21. Yeah, right?Copy !req
22. Can I?Copy !req
23. Hurry, come on.Copy !req
24. Good morning my loves.Copy !req
25. Everyone had a good breakfast?Copy !req
26. Everyone except for Papa. He
only took coffee.Copy !req
27. Straight home after school,
right?Copy !req
28. Yes.Copy !req
29. Where were you?Copy !req
30. Hop on.Copy !req
31. Better you get off here.Copy !req
32. Chepe, do I have to go?Copy !req
33. What did we agree?Copy !req
34. Just for a few days.Copy !req
35. Right, after that no one will
come poking around.Copy !req
36. And then I can work with you,
no?Copy !req
37. We'll see, Nico.Copy !req
38. - Morning, Director. - Good
morning.Copy !req
39. Stay close to the others.Copy !req
40. - Look, toys! - Hey, get back
here.Copy !req
41. WELCOME BACK STUDENTS!Copy !req
42. Silence!Copy !req
43. Silence, please.Copy !req
44. Silence is the foundation of
obedience.Copy !req
45. Obedience is the foundation of
discipline,Copy !req
46. and discipline is the foundation
of learning.Copy !req
47. So, let's review our rules,
shall we?Copy !req
48. Yeah!Copy !req
49. - Good morning. - I brought
enough for everyone.Copy !req
50. I'm glad to see that everyone -Copy !req
51. Uh... Mr. Juárez?Copy !req
52. Well, that almost everyone is
here.Copy !req
53. As you know, Mrs. Álvarez gave
birth to a baby boy,Copy !req
54. and two days ago decided to
become a full-time mother.Copy !req
55. Fortunately, we found Mr.
Juárez,Copy !req
56. He's from here in Matamoros,Copy !req
57. and he kindly took the job at
the last-minute.Copy !req
58. He's got a pulse, he's hired.Copy !req
59. There's not much I can say you
don't already know, so I'll beCopy !req
60. briefCopy !req
61. Although primary education is
mandatory and free,Copy !req
62. over half of our sixth gradersCopy !req
63. are dropping out. We are
failing.Copy !req
64. According to our ENLACE test
scores we are the very worst.Copy !req
65. I'm sure you're all aware of
this by now,Copy !req
66. this year they approved an
incentive bonusCopy !req
67. for those who meet certain score
thresholds.Copy !req
68. If that can motivate us to do
our jobs just a little bitCopy !req
69. better.Copy !req
70. Let's not forget our kids, okay?Copy !req
71. So... Let's have a good year,
shall we?Copy !req
72. Do you smell that? Smells like
something.Copy !req
73. It smells like... trash.Copy !req
74. Hurry up! Quickly now!Copy !req
75. - We don't have much time! -
What happened to the desks?Copy !req
76. - Those aren't desks. - Why are
they upside down?Copy !req
77. They're lifeboats!Copy !req
78. And that's not the floor...Copy !req
79. It's the ocean!Copy !req
80. Each boat can only hold the same
number of passengers.Copy !req
81. Those who don't get into a boat
will drown.Copy !req
82. But be careful -Copy !req
83. If any boat has more passengers
than the others it will sinkCopy !req
84. and everyone on board will
drown.Copy !req
85. There's 23 of us here and only
six boats,Copy !req
86. so, figure it out. Ready? Let's
go!Copy !req
87. Five... four...Copy !req
88. - Get in! - Three... two...!Copy !req
89. One!Copy !req
90. Come on!Copy !req
91. Don't worry! I'll save you!Copy !req
92. Help!Copy !req
93. Help me! Please! Someone help
me!Copy !req
94. Help... me...Copy !req
95. Now eight boats!Copy !req
96. What the hell is going on here?Copy !req
97. There's one last passenger! Save
him!Copy !req
98. Five, four, three, two!Copy !req
99. No, he's too fat! We won't
float!Copy !req
100. He'll sink the boat!Copy !req
101. Wait wait -Copy !req
102. Why would he sink it?Copy !req
103. Here's an interesting question.Copy !req
104. What makes a boat float?Copy !req
105. Or what determines how much
weight a boat can hold?Copy !req
106. Anyone know?Copy !req
107. No one?Copy !req
108. Do you know?Copy !req
109. No... I don't know either.Copy !req
110. Yeah I don't know either.Copy !req
111. Where do we find answers to
things we don't know?Copy !req
112. How about the Internet?Copy !req
113. - I believe there's a computer
lab? - Yes.Copy !req
114. It's out of service at the
moment.Copy !req
115. Okay.Copy !req
116. Where else can we find answers?Copy !req
117. We ask the teacher.Copy !req
118. We tried that but as you've seen
We don't know very much.Copy !req
119. How about books?Copy !req
120. Is the library in service?Copy !req
121. To the library! Let's go!Copy !req
122. Where's the library?Copy !req
123. Come on, let's go!Copy !req
124. - May I help you? - Yes
please... Mrs. Florita.Copy !req
125. We don't have any class visits
scheduled today.Copy !req
126. You don't have anything
scheduled for today.Copy !req
127. Procedure requires notifying the
library at least one day inCopy !req
128. advance,Copy !req
129. with desired reference materials
identified in advance.Copy !req
130. Yeah, yeah, but we'll be quick.
Where are the encyclopedias?Copy !req
131. - They're here in back, BUT —
Come on!Copy !req
132. - This way. - Hey!Copy !req
133. No running, please.Copy !req
134. 1974.Copy !req
135. What did we come for?Copy !req
136. Boats, barcos...Copy !req
137. Oh, man.Copy !req
138. There's no 'B'.Copy !req
139. There's no 'B'. Where else can
we look?Copy !req
140. How about 'F', for flotation?Copy !req
141. You know what?Copy !req
142. We don't need the encyclopedia.Copy !req
143. You can figure this out on your
own.Copy !req
144. Tell me.Copy !req
145. Why do...Copy !req
146. Why do things float?Copy !req
147. Anyone?Copy !req
148. Somebody. Just take a guess.Copy !req
149. It doesn't matter if you're
wrong,Copy !req
150. what matters is that you try.Copy !req
151. what matters is that you try.
In fact, I'd prefer you get it
wrong.Copy !req
152. In fact, I'd prefer you get it
wrong.Copy !req
153. Yeah, because when we make
mistakesCopy !req
154. we learn what we did wrong...Copy !req
155. and that can help us learn
what's right.Copy !req
156. But, how will we get good
grades?Copy !req
157. What do grades matter?Copy !req
158. We need good grades to graduate,Copy !req
159. and so that our parents don't
get mad at us.Copy !req
160. That's all?Copy !req
161. Fine, that's easy.Copy !req
162. As of now, you all get a 10.Copy !req
163. At the end of the year, when you
get your report cards, you'reCopy !req
164. all going to find there: your
10!Copy !req
165. I promise.Copy !req
166. Really. Got it?Copy !req
167. Now we can get back to the
important stuff.Copy !req
168. Who wants to be wrong first?Copy !req
169. Come on, who?Copy !req
170. No one?Copy !req
171. Have you ever had a class like
that before?Copy !req
172. I've never had a teacher like
that.Copy !req
173. - What were we supposed to
learn? - About boats, obviously.Copy !req
174. Do you think?Copy !req
175. - Walk with us, Romeo? - What?Copy !req
176. Don't worry, I can keep a
secret.Copy !req
177. No, it's just that...Copy !req
178. Have you noticed that Paloma
seems different this year?Copy !req
179. Um, it's called puberty.Copy !req
180. Heavy, no? Could be real silver.Copy !req
181. You can replace the mirror.Copy !req
182. Besides, I'm keeping it.Copy !req
183. What do you want for it?Copy !req
184. - Do you think he meant it? -
Why would he lie about somethingCopy !req
185. like that?Copy !req
186. like that?
Remember what he said? He wants
us to make mistakes.Copy !req
187. Remember what he said? He wants
us to make mistakes.Copy !req
188. If we don't have to be right,
it's okay if we're wrong,Copy !req
189. and if it's okay to be wrong, we
can't get a bad grade.Copy !req
190. I've never had a 10 before.Copy !req
191. Papa, your nose.Copy !req
192. It's nothing.Copy !req
193. Come help me unload.Copy !req
194. Ok.Copy !req
195. Fifteen minutes of cartoons
while I make lunch,Copy !req
196. and then it's homework time.Copy !req
197. Aren't you working the night
shift, mama?Copy !req
198. What are you doing up?Copy !req
199. Nico!Copy !req
200. The pretty boy.Copy !req
201. First day of school -Copy !req
202. How did it go, man?Copy !req
203. - Well - Last year, they
suspended him on the first day,Copy !req
204. right?Copy !req
205. It's not for him man, just like
his brother.Copy !req
206. Can't sit still, always on the
go.Copy !req
207. That's my Carlitos.Copy !req
208. Staring out the window,
doodling, getting in fights...Copy !req
209. Anything but paying attention,
am I right?Copy !req
210. But it's ok, Nico. You got us to
take care of you.Copy !req
211. You wanna learn from books...Copy !req
212. or do you wanna learn from
"la vida"?Copy !req
213. This is the real school right
here, no?Copy !req
214. - We better get going. - Word.Copy !req
215. Let him carry it.Copy !req
216. Mr. Juárez.Copy !req
217. I missed you this morning at the
faculty meeting.Copy !req
218. I missed you this morning at the
faculty meeting.Copy !req
219. Yeah, I was... uh...Copy !req
220. I had a lot of rearranging to do
in my classroom.Copy !req
221. Yeah, I saw.Copy !req
222. You have something against
furniture?Copy !req
223. No... just... some.Copy !req
224. Like your desk, for instance.Copy !req
225. It's just I don't think I need a
desk.Copy !req
226. You have to have a desk. Every
teacher has to have one.Copy !req
227. Is there some rule written that
says I have to have a desk?Copy !req
228. It's not the kind of rule that's
written,Copy !req
229. but how will the students know
who's in charge?Copy !req
230. Who's the authority?Copy !req
231. Tell me -Copy !req
232. You turn your classroom into a
playground, what's next?Copy !req
233. Turn the playground into a
classroom?Copy !req
234. What's your story, professor?
What do you mean?Copy !req
235. This place, you know what they
call it?Copy !req
236. - "School of Punishment." -
Exactly.Copy !req
237. Yeah.Copy !req
238. Your name was the first on the
transfer list.Copy !req
239. The only name, in fact.Copy !req
240. You asked to come here.Copy !req
241. Why?Copy !req
242. well...Copy !req
243. Maybe I'm crazy?Copy !req
244. You're running from something.Copy !req
245. No, I just wanted to try
something different.Copy !req
246. Like what?Copy !req
247. I don't know.Copy !req
248. I'm still trying to figure that
out.Copy !req
249. Well, perhaps this is the place
to do it.Copy !req
250. After all, no one gives a damn
what happens here.Copy !req
251. Just do me a favor, don't go
kicking any hornets' nests.Copy !req
252. No... why would I...Copy !req
253. No.Copy !req
254. The desk...Copy !req
255. stays inside.Copy !req
256. Help me push it back?Copy !req
257. C'mon...Copy !req
258. Hey...Copy !req
259. So... What's up with the
computer lab?Copy !req
260. They were installed four years
ago,Copy !req
261. and two months later they were
stolen.Copy !req
262. - That was four years ago? -
Mhhm.Copy !req
263. There are no other computers
here?Copy !req
264. The only one that works is in my
office.Copy !req
265. Welcome to Escuela Primaria José
Urbina López, Mr. Juárez..Copy !req
266. What was that?Copy !req
267. What's this?Copy !req
268. I found it on the dump.Copy !req
269. You should've left it there.Copy !req
270. What use do we have for such
fantasies?Copy !req
271. Come in, come in.Copy !req
272. Sit wherever you like, there are
no assigned seats here.Copy !req
273. In fact, you don't even need to
sit if you don't want to.Copy !req
274. Hurry, come in!Copy !req
275. We're going to do amazing things
in here every day.Copy !req
276. but if you come late, you'll
miss it.Copy !req
277. Have you heard the story of the
burro that fell into the well?Copy !req
278. No?Copy !req
279. Then let me tell you...Copy !req
280. One day, a burro fell into a
deep well.Copy !req
281. Miraculously, it wasn't hurt,
but it couldn't get out.Copy !req
282. The farmer who owned the donkeyCopy !req
283. figured that rescuing it would
be very expensive,Copy !req
284. certainly more than the burro
was worth.Copy !req
285. And since the well was dry and a
danger to his other animals,Copy !req
286. he decided he should bury themCopy !req
287. The burro and the well.Copy !req
288. So, he began to shovel dirt into
the well.Copy !req
289. The dirt fell on the burro, who
cried out,Copy !req
290. But the farmer kept on
shoveling.Copy !req
291. After a while, the burro fell
silent.Copy !req
292. The farmer assumed the animal
was dead,Copy !req
293. but he had to fill the well so
no one else would fall in.Copy !req
294. So, he kept shoveling.Copy !req
295. Imagine his surprise when he
suddenly sawCopy !req
296. the tips of two ears sticking
out of the well.Copy !req
297. He shoveled faster and faster,Copy !req
298. as the burro's head slowly
emerged, shaking off the dirt.Copy !req
299. Instead of letting itself get
buried,Copy !req
300. the burro used all the dirt that
was thrown on it to step up andCopy !req
301. upCopy !req
302. until the mound of dirt was high
enoughCopy !req
303. that it could jump right out of
the well.Copy !req
304. From now, we are going to be
like that burro.Copy !req
305. No matter how much dirt gets
thrown at us, no matter how muchCopy !req
306. shit rains down,Copy !req
307. we are not going to let it bury
us.Copy !req
308. We're going to shake it off, and
we're going to use itCopy !req
309. to become the very best students
in the world.Copy !req
310. There IS one thing that can stop
you thoughCopy !req
311. if you let it.Copy !req
312. It's you.Copy !req
313. Now, I understand why you might
notCopy !req
314. when there are kids your age in
the worldCopy !req
315. who can solve formulas in
advanced calculusCopy !req
316. or write symphonies, or even
build robots.Copy !req
317. How could the students at José
Urbina ever do those kinds ofCopy !req
318. things,Copy !req
319. if we don't have computers, the
Internet,Copy !req
320. Sometimes we don't even have
electricity.Copy !req
321. But, you know what?Copy !req
322. We don't need any of that. None
of it.Copy !req
323. What you need, what each of you
needs,Copy !req
324. you already have.Copy !req
325. And it's called...Copy !req
326. Potential.Copy !req
327. It's up to you whether you use
it or not.Copy !req
328. I can't make you.Copy !req
329. Neither can your parents.Copy !req
330. It's your responsibility to
decide if you want to use it,Copy !req
331. and how you want to use it.Copy !req
332. So let's do this:Copy !req
333. From now on, I'm not going to
decide what we learn;Copy !req
334. YOU will. All right?Copy !req
335. So now, tell me:Copy !req
336. What do you want to learn?Copy !req
337. It can be anything, anything at
all.Copy !req
338. What do you want to learn?Copy !req
339. Oh, nothing.Copy !req
340. No one? Nothing?Copy !req
341. Perfect.Copy !req
342. Easy for me, then.Copy !req
343. We'll just sit here then...Copy !req
344. and learn about nothing.Copy !req
345. And if you want to, we can do
this all year.Copy !req
346. What was that?Copy !req
347. Who was it?Copy !req
348. No one?Copy !req
349. On the count of three, I want
everyone to raise their pen.Copy !req
350. One, two, three!Copy !req
351. Come here.Copy !req
352. Yes, you in the back.Copy !req
353. Yes, you. Come.Copy !req
354. - What's your name? - Nico.Copy !req
355. I also used to be the class
clown, Nico.Copy !req
356. I was always punished.Copy !req
357. I'll give you a piece of advice:Copy !req
358. Don't ever change.Copy !req
359. Yes?Copy !req
360. No need to raise your hand.
What's your name?Copy !req
361. - Donovan. - Yes, Donovan?Copy !req
362. I'd like to keep learning about
boats and ships.Copy !req
363. Good, anyone think more about
our boats from yesterday?Copy !req
364. I realized that sometimes people
are going to dieCopy !req
365. and there's nothing we can do
about it.Copy !req
366. And that's life.Copy !req
367. Whoa, heavy. "There's nothing we
can do."Copy !req
368. So, we should just let them die?Copy !req
369. - Yes? - My name is Lupe.Copy !req
370. You don't have to raise your
hand.Copy !req
371. I don't agree that there's
nothing we can do about it.Copy !req
372. I think you need to do as much
as you can.Copy !req
373. You need to do as much as you
can for as many as you can.Copy !req
374. Very good, very good.Copy !req
375. You just said the same thingCopy !req
376. as one of the world's greatest
philosophers.Copy !req
377. His name is John Stuart Mill.Copy !req
378. Maybe you could be a
philosopher.Copy !req
379. What's a "philosopher"?Copy !req
380. It's someone who studies
philosophy.Copy !req
381. Which is a way to explore,Copy !req
382. or talk about life's deepest,
most complicated questions,Copy !req
383. which can be very hard to
understand.Copy !req
384. and that helps us figure out
right from wrong.Copy !req
385. But I still want to know why a
boat floats.Copy !req
386. But I still want to know why a
boat floats.
Oh, right.Copy !req
387. Oh, right.Copy !req
388. Have you thought about why the
boat would sink if the directorCopy !req
389. got on?Copy !req
390. 'Cause he's a fat ass.Copy !req
391. Good job!Copy !req
392. You didn't raise your hand, well
done!Copy !req
393. Very good, thanks.Copy !req
394. Tell me, Nico, why would the
boat sink because he's fat?Copy !req
395. Maybe because he's too heavy?Copy !req
396. Did you know a fat person floats
in water betterCopy !req
397. than a muscular person that
weighs the same?Copy !req
398. No?Copy !req
399. Can anyone tell me why that
might happen?Copy !req
400. Why?Copy !req
401. It's a tough one, but I know you
can do it.Copy !req
402. Think about it. Think, think,
think.Copy !req
403. Who wants to take a guess? Or,
how about this?Copy !req
404. Why if I blow up a balloon,Copy !req
405. it falls through the air, but
floats on water?Copy !req
406. Remember a fat person floats
betterCopy !req
407. than a muscular person who
weighs the same.Copy !req
408. Why?Copy !req
409. Because they have different
sizes?Copy !req
410. Ah, so then it's the size.
Maybe.Copy !req
411. What if I take a bowling ball
that is the same size as myCopy !req
412. balloon,Copy !req
413. and drop them both on water?Copy !req
414. The bowling ball would sink,
it's heavier.Copy !req
415. - And the balloon would float. -
But, how?Copy !req
416. If they're the same size?Copy !req
417. So, is it the size, or the
weight?Copy !req
418. I'll give you a clue.Copy !req
419. It has to do with the way
fractions work.Copy !req
420. That's precisely what we were
going to talk about today.Copy !req
421. Fractions, division, and
remainders.Copy !req
422. Alright let's see...Copy !req
423. Remember the boat game?Copy !req
424. Tell me, what were the
remainders.Copy !req
425. Think about it.Copy !req
426. The passengers who didn't fit in
the boat?Copy !req
427. Exactly!Copy !req
428. The passengers who couldn't fit
in the boat and drowned.Copy !req
429. Well done!Copy !req
430. Wow.Copy !req
431. You're so smart that, honestly,
I don't think that you even needCopy !req
432. me here.Copy !req
433. So... I'm going to go get a
drink...Copy !req
434. and be back in 30 minutes.Copy !req
435. I bet by the time I get back
you'll have all the answers.Copy !req
436. Anyone want anything? No?Copy !req
437. I'll be right back.Copy !req
438. - Muscle is heavier than fat. -
How do you know that?Copy !req
439. My mom works at a butcher shop.Copy !req
440. A kilo of meat looks like this,
and a kilo of fat like this.Copy !req
441. Maybe there's air in the fat and
that's why it floats.Copy !req
442. So if they weigh the same, the
fat guy should be bigger.Copy !req
443. But what does it have to do with
size,Copy !req
444. if a big balloon floats on
water, but a pebble will sink.Copy !req
445. - Because it has air in it. -
Yes,Copy !req
446. but I I'm sure a giant balloon
would weigh more than a pebble.Copy !req
447. So that's it then, a fat person
floats better because they haveCopy !req
448. more air inside.Copy !req
449. Like Director Chucho.Copy !req
450. You must be the new guy.Copy !req
451. I'm Arturo... Mr. García.Copy !req
452. Hello, I'm Sergio.Copy !req
453. Is everything okay, Sergio?Copy !req
454. Uh, yeah, I think so.Copy !req
455. The kids are getting the best of
you.Copy !req
456. That's one way to put it.Copy !req
457. You can't let them see your
weaknesses.Copy !req
458. The key is to discipline them
from the beginning.Copy !req
459. They have to know who has the
authority.Copy !req
460. Hmm, I think maybe it should be
exactly the opposite.Copy !req
461. Well, good luck with that.Copy !req
462. Thanks.Copy !req
463. You know the most powerful words
a teacher can say?Copy !req
464. I don't know.Copy !req
465. Ah, you do!Copy !req
466. Shouldn't you be teaching right
now?Copy !req
467. Better I let them learn.Copy !req
468. Mr. Juárez, everything all
right?Copy !req
469. Sergio, just call me Sergio.Copy !req
470. Shouldn't you be in your class
right now, MR. JUÁREZ?Copy !req
471. Yeah, yeah. So?Copy !req
472. The kids are good.Copy !req
473. Don't worry, in fact they may be
too good.Copy !req
474. - This is the school's only
computer? - Yes.Copy !req
475. - May I use it for a minute? -
What? Now?Copy !req
476. Yeah, it's just that these kids
are incredible.Copy !req
477. I can barely keep up with them.Copy !req
478. I would've thought that a former
middle school teacherCopy !req
479. would be qualified to teach
sixth graders.Copy !req
480. Yeah... me, too.Copy !req
481. It's just that they're... moving
so fast.Copy !req
482. Do you mind if I just...? Come
on, only for a sec -Copy !req
483. Enough, Mr. Juárez! Let's go
let's go.Copy !req
484. Enough, Mr. Juárez! Let's go
let's go.Copy !req
485. Three minutes. Out.Copy !req
486. I'm sorry, Director. Daniel
won't stop crying.Copy !req
487. What's wrong, little one? Do you
like clowns?Copy !req
488. Look! A clown's nose.Copy !req
489. What are you laughing at? What's
your name?Copy !req
490. Hey, come back! Wait!Copy !req
491. So, what did we learn?Copy !req
492. Have we figured out the problem?Copy !req
493. FLOTATION = WEIGHT / SIZECopy !req
494. We think that if a fat man and a
muscular guy weigh the same,Copy !req
495. then the fat man would be
bigger,Copy !req
496. because muscle is heavier than
fat.Copy !req
497. Exactly! Well done!Copy !req
498. What? What's wrong?Copy !req
499. We were sure that if two things
are the same size,Copy !req
500. then the lighter would float
better.Copy !req
501. Ha! You're both right!Copy !req
502. How can that be?Copy !req
503. It's called an inversely
proportional relationship,Copy !req
504. and you figured out both parts
of it.Copy !req
505. What we were calling
'flotation',Copy !req
506. is the concept of density.Copy !req
507. Where density equals mass over
volume.Copy !req
508. Mass is another word for weight,Copy !req
509. and volume is another word for
size.Copy !req
510. and volume is another word for
size.Copy !req
511. As the mass increases, we get
higher density,Copy !req
512. but if volume increases, we get
lower density.Copy !req
513. Got it?Copy !req
514. In Spanish, please!Copy !req
515. - Mr. Director, won't you join
us? - What are you doing?Copy !req
516. - Isn't it cool? - I mean, why
are you out here?Copy !req
517. It was your idea, remember?Copy !req
518. Turn the playground into a
classroom.Copy !req
519. You're supposed to be teaching
natural science,Copy !req
520. Your lesson plan today, if I am
not mistaken, should be on theCopy !req
521. Solar System.Copy !req
522. That was the plan, but right now
they're more interested inCopy !req
523. physics.Copy !req
524. - Physics? - Yeah.Copy !req
525. As far as I know, there's
nothing about physics on theCopy !req
526. ENLACE test.Copy !req
527. The ENLACE, sir. Come on.Copy !req
528. Teaching to that test isn't
going to help these kids.Copy !req
529. What does it really even
measure?Copy !req
530. Teachers.Copy !req
531. Did you ever think of that?Copy !req
532. Come here.Copy !req
533. What have you learned about
physics today?Copy !req
534. Um... not much.Copy !req
535. I mean I understand the 'reverse
relationship' of density -Copy !req
536. - Inversely proportional. -
Yeah, that.Copy !req
537. Inversely proportional...
between mass and volumeCopy !req
538. and how that changes density...Copy !req
539. But how those huge metal ships
are able to float...Copy !req
540. I just don't know.Copy !req
541. But neither did you.Copy !req
542. Well, uhm, that's a tough one.Copy !req
543. - It's difficult. - I see...Copy !req
544. So, who is more dense, then?Copy !req
545. You, or the Director?Copy !req
546. Uh, I'm sure that...Copy !req
547. the Director is far, far less
dense than I am.Copy !req
548. You like to push it, huh?Copy !req
549. No, not at all.Copy !req
550. Although he has a lot more mass
and much more volume,Copy !req
551. To know who is more or less
dense, we would have to measureCopy !req
552. ourselves.Copy !req
553. How could we do that?Copy !req
554. If mass is weight, couldn't we
just weigh you?Copy !req
555. Yes, we could. But what about
volume?Copy !req
556. Yes, we could. But what about
volume?
Long by wide by high.Copy !req
557. Long by wide by high.Copy !req
558. Length by width by height, but
very good.Copy !req
559. That works for a regular object,
like a cube.Copy !req
560. What about an irregular object,
like a person?Copy !req
561. What's the Director's width? Is
it this...Copy !req
562. or this?Copy !req
563. Think about it. You're soooo
close.Copy !req
564. C'mon you've got this.Copy !req
565. You have the answer right in
front of you!Copy !req
566. Oh, Paloma. One second.Copy !req
567. I saw your notebook. You know
all the answers,Copy !req
568. Why didn't you share them with
your classmates?Copy !req
569. Look, you have real ability andCopy !req
570. Aerospace engineer?Copy !req
571. Pardon?Copy !req
572. You told Lupe she could be a
philosopher.Copy !req
573. Do you think I could be an
aerospace engineer?Copy !req
574. You want to design spaceships?Copy !req
575. Well, several astronauts were
first aerospace engineers.Copy !req
576. Whoa...Copy !req
577. Astronaut.Copy !req
578. Okay.Copy !req
579. I guess we have our work cut out
for us.Copy !req
580. Paloma...Copy !req
581. If you could try to share a
little bit more with yourCopy !req
582. classmates,Copy !req
583. there's a lot we could learn
from you.Copy !req
584. Do you think you can try?Copy !req
585. Why are we going the wrong way?Copy !req
586. Can I help you? Um...Copy !req
587. Do you have any books about
philosophy?Copy !req
588. Philosophy?Copy !req
589. Or philosophers?Copy !req
590. Philosophers?Copy !req
591. Maybe John Stuart Mill?Copy !req
592. Who?Copy !req
593. John Stuart -Copy !req
594. Those are college subjects,Copy !req
595. I don't know why you'd have any
need to read stuff like that atCopy !req
596. your age?Copy !req
597. Okay, well, thanks.Copy !req
598. Is that what you wanted?Copy !req
599. Watcha got there?Copy !req
600. Did you know you can burn things
with that using sunlight?Copy !req
601. - I did. - Yeah, who doesn't,
right?Copy !req
602. What a couple! The nerd and the
hoodlum.Copy !req
603. Go to hell.Copy !req
604. - Afternoon, Director. - Good
afternoon, Mr. García.Copy !req
605. This new guy, Mr. Juárez...Copy !req
606. - What do you know about him? -
Well...Copy !req
607. I checked his evaluations, his
references, the usual.Copy !req
608. - Is that all? - Yeah.Copy !req
609. That's interesting,Copy !req
610. because...Copy !req
611. I made a few calls...Copy !req
612. Where were you? I was worried.Copy !req
613. I guess I've been moving slower
today.Copy !req
614. What was that for?Copy !req
615. I don't know. I had a good day.Copy !req
616. Come on.Copy !req
617. It floats!Copy !req
618. Ok, you won.Copy !req
619. But why do you think it floats?Copy !req
620. Mr. Juárez, I hope you don't
mind.Copy !req
621. Not at all, come in.Copy !req
622. Please, come in.Copy !req
623. - How are you? This way. - I'm
fine.Copy !req
624. Look, before this goes any
further,Copy !req
625. I need to know exactly what
you're up to.Copy !req
626. So, I guess it isn't true that
"no one gives a damn.”Copy !req
627. It's my responsibility to look
out for my kids.Copy !req
628. "My kids..."Copy !req
629. Listen.Copy !req
630. I called your old school.Copy !req
631. They told me about an "incident"
you had there.Copy !req
632. I had an episode in front of the
students.Copy !req
633. A kind of existential crisis,
let's say.Copy !req
634. I'm fine.Copy !req
635. What else do you want to know?Copy !req
636. Nothing, nothing.Copy !req
637. I'm only trying to understand
what it is you're trying to doCopy !req
638. here.Copy !req
639. I mean, what's your method?Copy !req
640. No, no...Copy !req
641. I don't have a method exactly.Copy !req
642. I don't understand.Copy !req
643. Hey, can I offer you a beer?Copy !req
644. - No, I was just — Please, I'm
inviting you in to my home.Copy !req
645. Honey? We have a guest.Copy !req
646. - Good afternoon. - Hello.Copy !req
647. This is my wife, Laura. He's my
boss.Copy !req
648. Oh, I thought I was the boss.Copy !req
649. Nice to meet you.Copy !req
650. I'm Chucho.Copy !req
651. And this is our little surprise.Copy !req
652. He can be a bit impertinent.Copy !req
653. Yeah, I've noticed.Copy !req
654. I'm going to put the baby down.
Make yourself at home.Copy !req
655. Thank you. Excuse me.Copy !req
656. You asked why I came here.Copy !req
657. "José Urbina López Elementary
SchoolCopy !req
658. receives... grant for a computer
lab."Copy !req
659. That's dated eight months ago.Copy !req
660. It says the funds were already
disbursed.Copy !req
661. They were disbursed all right,
but they never got to us.Copy !req
662. - You know how it goes. - Yeah.Copy !req
663. "They'll be there tomorrow, no
need to press."Copy !req
664. In Matamoros you don't press
more if you know what's good forCopy !req
665. you.Copy !req
666. Of course, yeah, sure.Copy !req
667. Why the obsession?Copy !req
668. We grew up without computer labs
and we turned out fine.Copy !req
669. You have one of those phones
that go online?Copy !req
670. Yeah, why?Copy !req
671. Can I borrow it? I want to show
you something.Copy !req
672. By the way,Copy !req
673. there's a girl in my class,
Paloma Noyola.Copy !req
674. - What do you know about her? -
Not much. Quiet...Copy !req
675. Could apply herself more.Copy !req
676. - That's it? - Yeah, why?Copy !req
677. - This is the last of it. -
Let's see...Copy !req
678. 18 kilos of iron at 55 cents per
kilo,Copy !req
679. 3 kilos of aluminum, at 11 pesos
per kilo,Copy !req
680. 4 kilos of bronze at 2.75,Copy !req
681. and 3 kilos of copper at 26
pesos.Copy !req
682. The total comes to 105 pesos.Copy !req
683. Let's go.Copy !req
684. He shorted you.Copy !req
685. What's that?Copy !req
686. Papa, he's cheating you.Copy !req
687. Excuse me? I think you counted
wrong.Copy !req
688. It should be 131.9 pesos.Copy !req
689. Rounded up, 132 pesos.Copy !req
690. Would you check again? Of
course...Copy !req
691. Look at that... you're right.
It's 131.90 pesos.Copy !req
692. Sorry. Must've hit the wrong
key.Copy !req
693. Nico!Copy !req
694. What happened?Copy !req
695. You didn't come to Nacho's.Copy !req
696. I'm sorry, I just -Copy !req
697. Where's your backpack?Copy !req
698. It's inside.Copy !req
699. You need to think, Nico!Copy !req
700. It's okay.Copy !req
701. I'll be fine. You sure?Copy !req
702. What are you doing?Copy !req
703. Ever since I can remember, this
thing has been here, rottingCopy !req
704. Think you can fix it?Copy !req
705. Maybe.Copy !req
706. I've been learning about
flotation at school.Copy !req
707. Flotation? Really?Copy !req
708. - How will you get it to float?
- Well...Copy !req
709. First, I have to keep the water
out of it.Copy !req
710. - Duh, obviously! - No, what I
meant is...Copy !req
711. I need to seal all the holes
because if water gets in...Copy !req
712. What?Copy !req
713. Maybe... maybe that's it.Copy !req
714. Even though it's not sealed like
a balloon,Copy !req
715. it uses the air in this space,
somehow,Copy !req
716. so that it makes the boat less
dense than the water!Copy !req
717. Yeah! That could be it!Copy !req
718. Look at you...Copy !req
719. Getting all scientific!Copy !req
720. What is it?Copy !req
721. Do you think I could stay in
school, at least for a littleCopy !req
722. longer?Copy !req
723. Jeez, I don't know, man.Copy !req
724. - Let me talk to Nacho, okay? -
All right.Copy !req
725. You're trying to tell me your
entire approach is based onCopy !req
726. some... YouTube video?Copy !req
727. Yeah, pretty much.Copy !req
728. So you said to hell with the
curriculum?Copy !req
729. Yeah, pretty much.Copy !req
730. We'll get it all covered
eventually, but,Copy !req
731. When they want to, when it's
their idea.Copy !req
732. Although, after what I saw
today,Copy !req
733. I'm not even sure they need me.Copy !req
734. If they had computers,Copy !req
735. they'd learn everything by
themselves.Copy !req
736. Oh my god.Copy !req
737. Here.Copy !req
738. Did you ever teach?Copy !req
739. It's a requirement to become a
Director.Copy !req
740. So then you remember why you
decided to become a teacher, no?Copy !req
741. That was a long time ago.Copy !req
742. What was the name of that
teacher?Copy !req
743. Mrs. Carmona.Copy !req
744. Mine was Mr. Chávez.Copy !req
745. Profe Juan Antonio Chávez.Copy !req
746. He told me I could change the
world,Copy !req
747. and I believed him.Copy !req
748. I remember how I gave him a hug
up there, in front of everyone,Copy !req
749. at my graduation.Copy !req
750. When I started teaching my kids
would come up to hug me, too.Copy !req
751. but over time, each year there
were fewer and fewer,Copy !req
752. until last year, not one.Copy !req
753. Kids have changedCopy !req
754. No.Copy !req
755. Kids will always be kids.Copy !req
756. The world has changed, Mr.
Juárez.Copy !req
757. Yes, but we haven't.Copy !req
758. Nothing in education has changed
in the last 100 years.Copy !req
759. Nothing. From the school bell to
the uniforms.Copy !req
760. "Be quiet! Stand in line! Raise
your hand!"Copy !req
761. We're training these kids to be
cogs in a machineCopy !req
762. whose only purpose is to keep
running for its own sake.Copy !req
763. And if it chews them up and
spits them out,Copy !req
764. it's because they didn't follow
the rules of our little game.Copy !req
765. But these kids are so much
smarter than that.Copy !req
766. They know full well the machine
is obsolete.Copy !req
767. So they tune out, they drift
away...Copy !req
768. and we lose them.Copy !req
769. You asked me why I came here.Copy !req
770. I don't want to lose any more
kids.Copy !req
771. Not one more.Copy !req
772. Aren't you a little old to be
such an idealist?Copy !req
773. I'm a little too old to be a new
Dad again.Copy !req
774. - Okay, Mr. Juárez... - Sergio,
just Sergio.Copy !req
775. Call me Sergio.Copy !req
776. Okay, Sergio.Copy !req
777. I'm going to give you a
chance...Copy !req
778. just don't piss it away, eh?Copy !req
779. Oh, actually...Copy !req
780. Can I ask you for one more tiny
favor?Copy !req
781. It's ready, get in.Copy !req
782. Mom, time to get up.Copy !req
783. What's going on? Come on, help
me out here.Copy !req
784. Good evening.Copy !req
785. Breakfast is on the table,
coffee's ready.Copy !req
786. Thank you.Copy !req
787. All right, in you go.Copy !req
788. No! What are you doing! You
didn't take off your underwear.Copy !req
789. Hey...Copy !req
790. Get out, get out!Copy !req
791. Uhh, get back in...Copy !req
792. How much?Copy !req
793. - Seven centimeters. - Yeah!Copy !req
794. Next. Next!Copy !req
795. Wait, I changed my mind!Copy !req
796. Ok, I'm here.Copy !req
797. "Tiny favor."Copy !req
798. - It's for the kids, remember? -
For the kids.Copy !req
799. For the kids... This is for the
kids!Copy !req
800. For the kids!Copy !req
801. For the kids!Copy !req
802. I'm going, I'm going.Copy !req
803. - Ten Centimeters. - Ten
centimeters!Copy !req
804. Sergio is more dense!Copy !req
805. Sergio is more dense!Copy !req
806. We can build a water heater, or
an oven...Copy !req
807. I have an idea! Check this out.Copy !req
808. - We're going to win! - Hell,
yeah!Copy !req
809. Hi, there. Can I help you?Copy !req
810. Do you have any books about
philosophy?Copy !req
811. Of course.Copy !req
812. Are you interested in any area
in particular?Copy !req
813. Metaphysics? Ontology?
Epistemology?Copy !req
814. Morality? Logic? Aesthetics?Copy !req
815. Marlene, can you give me a hand?Copy !req
816. Here you go.Copy !req
817. - This never happens! - Give it
a whack.Copy !req
818. Sorry.Copy !req
819. Over here.Copy !req
820. None of that is usable. Take all
you want.Copy !req
821. Careful not to cut yourself.
Good luck.Copy !req
822. We believe gravity is that which
makes us fall,Copy !req
823. but it only seems like we're
falling.Copy !req
824. When we're actually being pulled
towards Earth,Copy !req
825. because its mass is so enormous
compared to ours.Copy !req
826. It's the same reason why the sun
pulls the Earth.Copy !req
827. Then, if the sun is pulling the
Earth how come we don't justCopy !req
828. crash into the sun?Copy !req
829. Because the orbit is the exact
spot where a planet is caughtCopy !req
830. between falling towards
something and falling away fromCopy !req
831. it.Copy !req
832. So, the entire universe, all of
us, all the time,Copy !req
833. are actually just falling
through space?Copy !req
834. - Yeah, something like that. -
Cool!Copy !req
835. - Hey watch where you point
that. - Sorry!Copy !req
836. Okay, so...Copy !req
837. Everyone knows that a magnifying
glass can burn things.Copy !req
838. This is unfocused light
reflected onto my hand.Copy !req
839. But what happens if we focus it?Copy !req
840. Tada!Copy !req
841. I hope you enjoyed our Solar
Death Ray!Copy !req
842. If you think that was cool,
You'll like this even more...Copy !req
843. Watch what it does to this
bottle of gasoline!Copy !req
844. Rotation!Copy !req
845. Come on, everyone! Let me see
you rotating!Copy !req
846. Rotation!Copy !req
847. Now revolution!Copy !req
848. Why so early, Nico?Copy !req
849. Everything ok?Copy !req
850. All right, tell me.Copy !req
851. You said we could ask you
anything, right?Copy !req
852. Yup.Copy !req
853. And there is no question that's
too weird or that we shouldn'tCopy !req
854. ask, right?Copy !req
855. That's right.Copy !req
856. Okay, so... here's my question.Copy !req
857. Shoot.Copy !req
858. How do I get a girl to like me?Copy !req
859. - See! - No, no!Copy !req
860. It's a very good question.Copy !req
861. A very important question, in
fact.Copy !req
862. I'm serious, but...Copy !req
863. like all big questions, there's
no one answer.Copy !req
864. Dammit.Copy !req
865. Because there's not only one
kind of girl.Copy !req
866. What kind of girl are we talking
about?Copy !req
867. That's the thing.Copy !req
868. She's just so smart, and I'm so
dumb -Copy !req
869. Hey, hey.Copy !req
870. None of that.Copy !req
871. Every time I try to impress her,
I end up saying somethingCopy !req
872. stupid.Copy !req
873. Well there's your problem!Copy !req
874. What?Copy !req
875. You're trying to impress her,
show her how great you are.Copy !req
876. That works with some women,
but...Copy !req
877. You're not interested in just
any girl, are you?Copy !req
878. There you go.Copy !req
879. With a girl like that,Copy !req
880. you gotta show her how great she
is, not you.Copy !req
881. Support her, encourage her...Copy !req
882. Because she is going places.Copy !req
883. Especially someone like Paloma.Copy !req
884. - How...? - Eh, it was pretty
obvious.Copy !req
885. Look.Copy !req
886. I was going to give this to her,Copy !req
887. but I think maybe you should.Copy !req
888. Tell her "look what I found and
it made me think of you."Copy !req
889. How come you know all this
stuff?Copy !req
890. Remember when I said we learn
from our mistakes?Copy !req
891. I've made a lot of them.Copy !req
892. Take care of it now, you don't
want to lose it -Copy !req
893. No!Copy !req
894. Sorry, it's just that... I keep
important stuff in here.Copy !req
895. Let me see that bag, Nico.Copy !req
896. It just has my school supplies,
a gift from my brother...Copy !req
897. - That's all. - Nico!Copy !req
898. - No, no, no, - Nico, give it -Copy !req
899. Please, we never open it.
Please!Copy !req
900. Give me that bag.Copy !req
901. If they find out, they'll kill
me.Copy !req
902. Please, I'm begging you. Don't
open it.Copy !req
903. Give it to me, Nico.Copy !req
904. Will you?Copy !req
905. What?Copy !req
906. If I open this bag,Copy !req
907. am I going to find something no
12-year-old should have,Copy !req
908. much less bring to school?Copy !req
909. I don't know.Copy !req
910. Maybe.Copy !req
911. Nico, if I find something like
that,Copy !req
912. I'll have no choice but to
report it,Copy !req
913. and from then on everything will
get much more complicated forCopy !req
914. youCopy !req
915. So what are you going to do?Copy !req
916. That's what you have to tell me.Copy !req
917. Good morning.Copy !req
918. I looked up your questions,Copy !req
919. they're up front with your names
on them.Copy !req
920. Nico, I know you've had a lot of
catching up to do,Copy !req
921. but out of all my students,
you've made the most progress.Copy !req
922. Remember what I said at the top
of the year about taking chargeCopy !req
923. of your lives?Copy !req
924. You have to decide which
direction you want your life toCopy !req
925. go.Copy !req
926. Do you want it to go this way?Copy !req
927. or this way.Copy !req
928. You can't have both.Copy !req
929. Almost on time.Copy !req
930. At least you're making progress.Copy !req
931. Today, we're having Rosita's
dance presentation.Copy !req
932. It's going to be fantastic.Copy !req
933. But before we begin, it's game
time.Copy !req
934. Pay attention.Copy !req
935. There was a famous mathematician
namedCopy !req
936. Carl Friedrich Gauss.Copy !req
937. In 1777, when he was a kid,Copy !req
938. his teacher wanted to keep all
his students busy,Copy !req
939. so he asked them to add up all
the numbers from 1 to 100.Copy !req
940. This was supposed to take them
hours,Copy !req
941. but Gauss answered immediately.Copy !req
942. Can anyone tell me how he did
it?Copy !req
943. Uh, Team 2? Paloma?Copy !req
944. Is it...Copy !req
945. 5050?Copy !req
946. How did you get that?Copy !req
947. I added 100 plus 1... 101.Copy !req
948. 99 plus 2, 101.Copy !req
949. 98 plus 3, 101.Copy !req
950. In total, there are 50 pairs of
101.Copy !req
951. Team 2 gets a point.Copy !req
952. I need to report an incident.Copy !req
953. - Are we done here? - It seems
we are.Copy !req
954. What happened?Copy !req
955. A student may have brought
contraband to school.Copy !req
956. "May have brought"?Copy !req
957. Yeah, I'm not certain.Copy !req
958. Who's the offender?Copy !req
959. Me.Copy !req
960. Come again?Copy !req
961. Yes, maybe I should've reported
the student.Copy !req
962. Isn't that what you're doing
right now?Copy !req
963. Yes.Copy !req
964. Yes.
No.Copy !req
965. No.Copy !req
966. No, because I'm reporting
myself.Copy !req
967. For what?Copy !req
968. For failing to report something
that... Maybe I should have.Copy !req
969. I chose not to look in their
bag.Copy !req
970. So, who is the student?Copy !req
971. No, I can't tell you that.Copy !req
972. Because technically, there
hasn't been any violation.Copy !req
973. And I want to give them an
opportunity.Copy !req
974. I just... I'm not sure I did the
right thing.Copy !req
975. This seems more like a
confession than a report.Copy !req
976. I didn't do it just for him. Or
her.Copy !req
977. It's just that the whole class
is engaging,Copy !req
978. the method is working.Copy !req
979. If I report this student now, I
could lose everyone's trust.Copy !req
980. It would ruin the whole thing,
and I don't want to lose them.Copy !req
981. So what am I supposed to do?Copy !req
982. Tell me I did the right thing?Copy !req
983. Sergio,Copy !req
984. the only thing that you did...Copy !req
985. was confuse the hell out of me.Copy !req
986. Can I walk you home?Copy !req
987. Don't you live by the beach?Copy !req
988. Yes, but I'm taking the long way
today.Copy !req
989. Besides, you'll be a lot safer
with me...Copy !req
990. Suit yourself.Copy !req
991. You can build your own rocket,Copy !req
992. and you get to experience a
zero-gravity chamber.Copy !req
993. And look, there's also a
simulation of a failed launch,Copy !req
994. where you have to regain
control.Copy !req
995. And get this:Copy !req
996. Three students have become real
astronauts.Copy !req
997. - Sergio told me that — Wait a
second.Copy !req
998. Sergio gave you this?Copy !req
999. Wanna see something?Copy !req
1000. - Are you okay, Papa? - Yes,
don't worry.Copy !req
1001. I'm just a little beat today.Copy !req
1002. Who's this? Good afternoon. I'm
Nico.Copy !req
1003. We're partners on a science
project.Copy !req
1004. Let me take my bag inside, I'll
be right back.Copy !req
1005. Eh, how are you, sir?Copy !req
1006. Okay.Copy !req
1007. Come on.Copy !req
1008. - Sorry about the smell. - What
smell?Copy !req
1009. Here.Copy !req
1010. Where did you get that?Copy !req
1011. I... found it.Copy !req
1012. - Whoa. - You haven't seen
anything yet.Copy !req
1013. Here.Copy !req
1014. - What's that? - My tripod.Copy !req
1015. Doesn't it have to be nighttime?Copy !req
1016. Look.Copy !req
1017. - Where? - There.Copy !req
1018. Where the ocean meets the sky.Copy !req
1019. What - what's that?Copy !req
1020. SpaceX. It's the launch site in
Boca Chica, Texas.Copy !req
1021. Soon the world's biggest rockets
will be launched from there.Copy !req
1022. And we can watch them from right
here.Copy !req
1023. They're asleep.Copy !req
1024. What are you reading?Copy !req
1025. About moral dilemmas.Copy !req
1026. I don't understand a lot of it,
but it's very interesting.Copy !req
1027. Like...Copy !req
1028. let's say you're the captain of
a sinking ship.Copy !req
1029. You have 30 passengers, but the
lifeboat only holds 15.Copy !req
1030. How do you choose who to save,
and why?Copy !req
1031. - What class is that for? - It's
not for school.Copy !req
1032. I got it from the university.
For myself.Copy !req
1033. Wait, what?Copy !req
1034. That library is amazing, you
should see it.Copy !req
1035. I thought I'd like to study
philosophy,Copy !req
1036. but after seeing all those
books... I dunno.Copy !req
1037. But I want to be a professor,
that's for sure.Copy !req
1038. Philosophy?Copy !req
1039. Professor?Copy !req
1040. Honey...Copy !req
1041. You're not even going back to
school next year.Copy !req
1042. I have to work, who's going to
look after your baby brother,Copy !req
1043. huh?Copy !req
1044. Look, if it means a lot to you
and you really want to,Copy !req
1045. I'm sure you can get back to it
after, once he's inCopy !req
1046. kindergarten.Copy !req
1047. Let's go, Paloma.Copy !req
1048. Oh, there you are! Special
presentation today.Copy !req
1049. Your class gets the first slot.
9:00 am. Computer lab.Copy !req
1050. Okay.Copy !req
1051. The District sent a technician.Copy !req
1052. He'll show some basic concept to
the kidsCopy !req
1053. He'll explain to them how a
computer works.Copy !req
1054. Really? Yes, he's setting up
now.Copy !req
1055. - Really? - Yes, he's setting up
now.Copy !req
1056. What happened?Copy !req
1057. I insisted, I pressed.Copy !req
1058. I could kiss you.Copy !req
1059. Please don't...Copy !req
1060. I haven't brushed my teeth.Copy !req
1061. See you there.Copy !req
1062. Nico!Copy !req
1063. - How did it go? - I think...
good?Copy !req
1064. - What's this? - A little gift.Copy !req
1065. Call it a Christmas bonus...Copy !req
1066. I'm not big on tests, much less
practice ones.Copy !req
1067. You see the date?Copy !req
1068. 2012? But that's this year.Copy !req
1069. It's not a practice test. It's
the real deal.Copy !req
1070. - Where did you get this? - It's
everywhere.Copy !req
1071. You just have to know where to
look.Copy !req
1072. Thanks but...Copy !req
1073. No.Copy !req
1074. It's ok. We're all together on
this.Copy !req
1075. You can keep doing your thing if
you prepare them with thisCopy !req
1076. the other teachers won't be so
bothered by your little...Copy !req
1077. experiments.Copy !req
1078. Thanks, but... Count me out.Copy !req
1079. Thing is, we're evaluated as a
whole.Copy !req
1080. If your students do poorly, you
bring us all down.Copy !req
1081. So you kind of... have to be in.Copy !req
1082. What about the kids?Copy !req
1083. They'll have no idea.Copy !req
1084. If they excel, they graduate. If
they fail, they graduate.Copy !req
1085. No matter what happens, they
graduate. That's how it's alwaysCopy !req
1086. been.Copy !req
1087. The only difference is whether
we get a bonus along the way orCopy !req
1088. not.Copy !req
1089. No, the only differenceCopy !req
1090. is whether or not we teach them
to cheat.Copy !req
1091. That's the difference.Copy !req
1092. Laptops? Even better!Copy !req
1093. - Good morning. - Morning!Copy !req
1094. Believing computers are a vital
part of the modern economy...Copy !req
1095. - Eh, the government of
Matamoros — Cut to the chase,Copy !req
1096. man.Copy !req
1097. Okay.Copy !req
1098. This is a CPU, or Central
Processing Unit.Copy !req
1099. It's the brain of the
computer...Copy !req
1100. The CPU stores the data and
executesCopy !req
1101. the operations that make a
computer work...Copy !req
1102. Did you know that a computer can
execute up to...Copy !req
1103. four million commands per
second...Copy !req
1104. Hey!Copy !req
1105. - What are you doing? - Excuse
me?Copy !req
1106. I assume you gave this to my
daughter?Copy !req
1107. You must be Paloma's father.Copy !req
1108. Twelve hundred dollars.Copy !req
1109. - I don't make that in a year. -
No, no, uh...Copy !req
1110. They offer scholarships, the
school would recommend her.Copy !req
1111. Paloma has a good shot.Copy !req
1112. We could hold a fundraiser for
her travel expenses.Copy !req
1113. - I'm sure that — Look,
Maestro.Copy !req
1114. I may be poor.Copy !req
1115. I've worked all my life sifting
through trash,Copy !req
1116. but I'm no beggar.Copy !req
1117. Oh, no, no. That's not what I
meant.Copy !req
1118. Look.Copy !req
1119. I know this may seem like a big
stretch for you,Copy !req
1120. but Paloma isn't just any
student.Copy !req
1121. - She can get that scholarship.
- And then, what?Copy !req
1122. When she goes to this "space
camp" and sees all that crazyCopy !req
1123. stuff,Copy !req
1124. And then returns here? To
reality?Copy !req
1125. You know...Copy !req
1126. You blast these kids off like
rocket ships into space,Copy !req
1127. after packing their heads with
all these ideas.Copy !req
1128. But when they leave your class
and return to the real world,Copy !req
1129. when they come crashing back
down to earth, where will you beCopy !req
1130. then?Copy !req
1131. Will you be here to catch them
and tell them to keep trying?Copy !req
1132. No...Copy !req
1133. You'll be filling another bunch
of heads with your crazy ideas,Copy !req
1134. reminding them of what they
can't have,Copy !req
1135. what they can never be.Copy !req
1136. Papa?Copy !req
1137. Please, Maestro.Copy !req
1138. Don't do that to my daughter.Copy !req
1139. Come on, Paloma.Copy !req
1140. - You can't go in! - Excuse me.Copy !req
1141. - I know you're busy. - I tried
to stop him.Copy !req
1142. - Sorry to interrupt, but —
Who are you?Copy !req
1143. I'm Sergio Juárez Correa.Copy !req
1144. I teach at Escuela Primaria José
Urbina López.Copy !req
1145. I wanted to talk to you about...Copy !req
1146. About the situation with...Copy !req
1147. with our computers.Copy !req
1148. It's fine, Martha.Copy !req
1149. We always make time for our
soldiers on the front line.Copy !req
1150. - Interesting choice of words. -
Pardon me?Copy !req
1151. Soldier. Front lines...Copy !req
1152. As if I were at war, fighting an
enemy.Copy !req
1153. But no. I...Copy !req
1154. I spend all day with...Copy !req
1155. Children.Copy !req
1156. So, tell me...Copy !req
1157. How can I help you?Copy !req
1158. Nacho asked about you today.Copy !req
1159. "When is the pretty boy going to
start?"Copy !req
1160. Now that school's winding down,
he wants to show you the ropes.Copy !req
1161. What is it?Copy !req
1162. Do you see out there?Copy !req
1163. You can't tell where the ocean
endsCopy !req
1164. and the sky begins.Copy !req
1165. Did you know that right now,
technically,Copy !req
1166. we're standing in outer space?Copy !req
1167. What?Copy !req
1168. Yeah, it comes all the way down
to here.Copy !req
1169. What we think of as the sky is
just a layer of gas.Copy !req
1170. It doesn't feel like there's
anything, it seems empty,Copy !req
1171. but it actually has mass -Copy !req
1172. like weight -Copy !req
1173. and it's always being pulled
towards Earth.Copy !req
1174. It's trapped here.Copy !req
1175. Just like we are.Copy !req
1176. - Hey, I'm not going to work for
Nacho. - Are you serious?Copy !req
1177. But you hate school. What
happened?Copy !req
1178. I don't know. I just... like it.Copy !req
1179. There's this teacher,Copy !req
1180. who does things differently.Copy !req
1181. With him, I think I could
actually be smart.Copy !req
1182. And, there's this girl...Copy !req
1183. Ha! The truth comes out.Copy !req
1184. Check out our little Don Juan!Copy !req
1185. Listen...Copy !req
1186. If you had a shot to do
something else, I'd want you toCopy !req
1187. take it.Copy !req
1188. But with Nacho, once you're in,
you're never out.Copy !req
1189. But I was never really in...Copy !req
1190. Right?Copy !req
1191. Hey! Need a ride?Copy !req
1192. I was enjoying the walk, but
sure.Copy !req
1193. Your car in the shop? Yeah.Copy !req
1194. Forever.Copy !req
1195. I traded it for something more
useful.Copy !req
1196. Is that what I think it is?Copy !req
1197. Now you'll see what they can do.Copy !req
1198. - You didn't have to do that. -
Oh, I did.Copy !req
1199. - I'm sorry, I really thought -
- It's okay, I know.Copy !req
1200. In fact, I really appreciate
your effort.Copy !req
1201. Your wife didn't get mad?Copy !req
1202. - Are you married? - No.Copy !req
1203. Good, because...Copy !req
1204. I think I'll be staying at your
place for a while.Copy !req
1205. His approach is unorthodox, but
the results are compelling.Copy !req
1206. Yes, I'm sure.Copy !req
1207. We have visitors. To what do we
owe the honor?Copy !req
1208. I take it you know each other -Copy !req
1209. What are you doing?Copy !req
1210. Meditating.Copy !req
1211. We were having a discussion and
things got pretty intense,Copy !req
1212. so we were taking a moment to
cool down.Copy !req
1213. Don't mind me. Please, continue.Copy !req
1214. I'm just here to observe.Copy !req
1215. What were you discussing?Copy !req
1216. We were discussing... morality.Copy !req
1217. Morality?Copy !req
1218. That's not a subject we're
familiar with.Copy !req
1219. According to the lesson plan...
March 20th...Copy !req
1220. you should be preparing for the
ENLACE test.Copy !req
1221. Yeah, but Lupita has taken an
interest in philosophy.Copy !req
1222. Philosophy? And she was sharing
with the classCopy !req
1223. some of the things she has
learned.Copy !req
1224. Last year, in the fifth grade,Copy !req
1225. this class's scores were among
the worst in the nation.Copy !req
1226. I find it strange you have time
to do anything but prepare forCopy !req
1227. the test.Copy !req
1228. Well, like I said.Copy !req
1229. Someone told Lupita she was far
too youngCopy !req
1230. to read about philosophy.Copy !req
1231. So, we were trying to see if it
could answer some difficultCopy !req
1232. questions.Copy !req
1233. Like which?Copy !req
1234. I wanted to know what John
Stuart Mill would say aboutCopy !req
1235. abortion.Copy !req
1236. Abortion?Copy !req
1237. - And what do you think he'd
say? - Well...Copy !req
1238. If we want the greatest good for
the greatest number of people,Copy !req
1239. I think that if you're
struggling to afford rent andCopy !req
1240. food,Copy !req
1241. It's better not to bring more
children into the world who areCopy !req
1242. only going to suffer.Copy !req
1243. And that would also cause more
suffering for others.Copy !req
1244. So, yes.Copy !req
1245. There are cases where abortion
might be the right thing to do.Copy !req
1246. My god.Copy !req
1247. So, how do you feel about this
conclusion?Copy !req
1248. Well, I think about my own
siblings.Copy !req
1249. Sometimes they are a lot of
work,Copy !req
1250. but I also don't like imagining
them not having been born.Copy !req
1251. I don't know.Copy !req
1252. It's very complicated.Copy !req
1253. But it's cool.Copy !req
1254. We all agreed that condoms are
the obvious answer.Copy !req
1255. - Condoms? - Well, not everyone
agrees.Copy !req
1256. In fact, we had quite a debate
about that, didn't we?Copy !req
1257. According to Stuart Mill,
something can be good or badCopy !req
1258. depending on the situation.Copy !req
1259. Is there something that in his
viewCopy !req
1260. would always be immoral in every
case?Copy !req
1261. Anything that hurts many for the
benefit of a few.Copy !req
1262. Like what?Copy !req
1263. Like if someone steals something
that is meant for everybody?Copy !req
1264. Very good, Nico. So something
like...Copy !req
1265. Corruption?Copy !req
1266. Given you have the time to
discuss such advanced subjectsCopy !req
1267. in class,Copy !req
1268. You must have total command of
the basic sixth grade skillsCopy !req
1269. You, tell me...Copy !req
1270. What's the square root of 256?Copy !req
1271. What's the square root of 256?
What is that supposed to show?Copy !req
1272. What is that supposed to show?Copy !req
1273. No? With whom was Mexico at war
in 1846?Copy !req
1274. He hasn't gone over that yet,
he's -Copy !req
1275. Explain Darwin's Theory of
Evolution.Copy !req
1276. Hold on -Copy !req
1277. As I suspected...Copy !req
1278. This child lacks the basic
knowledge expected from a sixthCopy !req
1279. grader.Copy !req
1280. Mr. Juárez, he's the
definition...Copy !req
1281. of an ignoramus.Copy !req
1282. Now wait - Hey Nico!Copy !req
1283. And undisciplined too!Copy !req
1284. What's wrong with you? Why did
you do that?Copy !req
1285. To me, say what you want, but
don't you talk to the kids thatCopy !req
1286. way.Copy !req
1287. The square root of 256 is 16.Copy !req
1288. Mexico fought the U.S. in 1846.Copy !req
1289. Darwin's theory of Evolution is
the survival of the fittest.Copy !req
1290. Thank you, Mr. Juárez. See me in
the Director's Office.Copy !req
1291. I've been thinking about our
game from the first day,Copy !req
1292. remember?Copy !req
1293. The boats and the passengers?Copy !req
1294. There's an obvious solution.Copy !req
1295. You shouldn't sell more tickets
than there are spaces in theCopy !req
1296. lifeboats.Copy !req
1297. - Wait, Sergio. - I bet he's
taking bribes from thoseCopy !req
1298. assholes!Copy !req
1299. Wait, Sergio!Copy !req
1300. I asked you not to kick the
hornet's nest, and what did youCopy !req
1301. do!Copy !req
1302. Abortion? Condoms? Corruption?Copy !req
1303. I can't ask my students to be
fearless learners, to doCopy !req
1304. whatever it takes -Copy !req
1305. to go wherever their inquiries
take them -Copy !req
1306. And then what?Copy !req
1307. Turn into a bootlicker right in
front of them?Copy !req
1308. Think of the big pictureCopy !req
1309. What matters is that they keep
you as their teacher.Copy !req
1310. So what if you have to lick a
few boots?Copy !req
1311. Are you serious?Copy !req
1312. Mr. Director? I'm waiting...Copy !req
1313. Right away, sir.Copy !req
1314. Mr. Juárez...Copy !req
1315. I must say I was very disturbed
to receive numerous complaintsCopy !req
1316. that your kids aren't being
prepared for the ENLACE test,Copy !req
1317. But I didn't imagine the
situation would be this bad.Copy !req
1318. So you are hereby suspended for
two weeks.Copy !req
1319. What?Copy !req
1320. Until after your class has been
prepared for the ENLACE test,Copy !req
1321. For which you have obviously so
little regard -Copy !req
1322. Look...Copy !req
1323. You're right, I won't deny it.Copy !req
1324. I think it's a useless test.Copy !req
1325. but don't take that out on the
kids.Copy !req
1326. OK I'll do it, I'll prepare
them.Copy !req
1327. For the next two weeks, that's
all we'll do: prepare for theCopy !req
1328. ENLACE.Copy !req
1329. But please... don't suspend me.Copy !req
1330. To bring in anyone else but me
to prepare them would just be...Copy !req
1331. stupidity.Copy !req
1332. You can thank your Director that
this is only a suspension,Copy !req
1333. and not a permanent dismissal.Copy !req
1334. But to be honest, I'm starting
to reconsider my decision.Copy !req
1335. That won't be necessary.Copy !req
1336. That won't be necessary.Copy !req
1337. Anything else to add?Copy !req
1338. No.Copy !req
1339. Good day, Professors.Copy !req
1340. This is insane, Chucho.Copy !req
1341. Did you know that in my class,
right here in this school,Copy !req
1342. there's a girl who I'm sure is a
certifiable genius?Copy !req
1343. The only thing you knew about
her before I got here was thatCopy !req
1344. "she could apply herself more."Copy !req
1345. Really?Copy !req
1346. How many kids in this country
could be like her?Copy !req
1347. But as long as we tolerate this
deliberate ignorance, we willCopy !req
1348. never know.Copy !req
1349. I'm sorry, Sergio.Copy !req
1350. My hands are tied. Yeah, yeah.Copy !req
1351. Consider it a vacation.Copy !req
1352. Go spend some time with your
wife and baby.Copy !req
1353. Hey, you okay?Copy !req
1354. You know? You're not stupid.Copy !req
1355. Or an ignoramus, or whatever
that man called you.Copy !req
1356. I mean it.Copy !req
1357. You always come up with the most
clever things to say, soCopy !req
1358. quickly...Copy !req
1359. I could never do that.Copy !req
1360. There's the pretty boy!Copy !req
1361. Chepe says you're confused about
who you work for?Copy !req
1362. I couldn't believe it, so I
wanted to see for myself...Copy !req
1363. So? Do you work for me, or not?Copy !req
1364. It suddenly occurs to me that
the reason you're confusedCopy !req
1365. is because we never gave you a
proper welcome to the family.Copy !req
1366. A real initiation, you know?Copy !req
1367. Who's this?Copy !req
1368. She's no one, just a friend.Copy !req
1369. Go home.Copy !req
1370. - Hang on, love. - Hey!Copy !req
1371. - What's going on? - Are you a
virgin?Copy !req
1372. - What? - Nacho, don't!Copy !req
1373. - She'll do. - She's just a kid,
man!Copy !req
1374. Hey!Copy !req
1375. Look at your brother, trying to
act tough!Copy !req
1376. They're just kids, man!Copy !req
1377. - Wait, Nico! - What the fuck?Copy !req
1378. Lupe... Lupe!Copy !req
1379. Are you okay?Copy !req
1380. Are you all okay?Copy !req
1381. Are you ok?Copy !req
1382. Paloma, are you all right?Copy !req
1383. Nico...Copy !req
1384. Nico...Copy !req
1385. Carlos ate 3/8 of the pizza,Copy !req
1386. whereas Ricardo ate 1/4 of the
same pizza.Copy !req
1387. How much of the pizza did Carlos
and Ricardo eat?Copy !req
1388. Anyone?Copy !req
1389. Good morning, Laura.Copy !req
1390. What a surprise.Copy !req
1391. Maybe you can get him out of
bed.Copy !req
1392. Excuse me.Copy !req
1393. Can we talk for a minute?Copy !req
1394. Sergio, the ENLACE test is
tomorrow.Copy !req
1395. That means your suspension is
over.Copy !req
1396. We're understaffed, we could use
your help.Copy !req
1397. We haven't heard anything from
you.Copy !req
1398. I need to know if you're coming
back.Copy !req
1399. You know I couldn't do anything
about what happened.Copy !req
1400. You know I was against it.Copy !req
1401. Sergio, open up!Copy !req
1402. I'm not leaving. I'm staying
right here.Copy !req
1403. I'm going to eat your food, crap
in your toilet...Copy !req
1404. Whatever it takes, I'm not
leaving until you come out.Copy !req
1405. Sergio...Copy !req
1406. You can't walk out on these
children.Copy !req
1407. They're traumatized enough as it
is.Copy !req
1408. Maybe it's the best way to
prepare them for the future.Copy !req
1409. - Hi, how are you? - Go.Copy !req
1410. Seriously?Copy !req
1411. That's it? You're gonna give up
so easily?Copy !req
1412. Yeah, why not?Copy !req
1413. You don't want to finish what
you started?Copy !req
1414. Sergio...Copy !req
1415. You saw for yourself that you
were succeeding.Copy !req
1416. Want to know what I succeeded
at?Copy !req
1417. I succeeded at getting... they
killed... one of my...Copy !req
1418. Look, look...Copy !req
1419. If you don't want to, you don't
have to come back...Copy !req
1420. Great, so why are you here?Copy !req
1421. Great, so why are you here?
For the kids...Copy !req
1422. For the kids...Copy !req
1423. I want to get my kids back.Copy !req
1424. They stopped coming?Copy !req
1425. I want them to take the ENLACE
test.Copy !req
1426. That fucking test...Copy !req
1427. Chucho...Copy !req
1428. Look, like I told you...Copy !req
1429. I failed...Copy !req
1430. Them -Copy !req
1431. Nico.Copy !req
1432. I thought...Copy !req
1433. I thought I was doing things the
right way.Copy !req
1434. Really, but -Copy !req
1435. I should've checked the
backpack...Copy !req
1436. No, if I come back they're just
going to end up paying theCopy !req
1437. price.Copy !req
1438. Again.Copy !req
1439. - Sorry... - Wait a minute,
Sergio.Copy !req
1440. I really do think you were on
the verge of something big withCopy !req
1441. them.Copy !req
1442. I saw it myself.Copy !req
1443. I have never seen children
respond like that before. Ever!Copy !req
1444. Or make such progress in so
little time.Copy !req
1445. But no one gives a shit what we
think of this method.Copy !req
1446. No one will care unless we show
measurable results.Copy !req
1447. That's what the test is for.Copy !req
1448. You said it yourself. Paloma
might be a genius.Copy !req
1449. But, how would we know -Copy !req
1450. Paloma stopped coming?Copy !req
1451. Good afternoon.Copy !req
1452. Paloma?Copy !req
1453. What are you doing here?Copy !req
1454. The director said he'd leave me
alone ifCopy !req
1455. I convince you to come back
to school.Copy !req
1456. You're not going back?Copy !req
1457. I don't know if I can.Copy !req
1458. Why not?Copy !req
1459. Maybe your dad was right...Copy !req
1460. Maybe I've done more harm than
good.Copy !req
1461. I can't come back.Copy !req
1462. I have to look after him now.
He's sick.Copy !req
1463. I'm so sorry, Paloma.Copy !req
1464. I'm so sorry.Copy !req
1465. But my dad wasn't right...Copy !req
1466. You told us we had as much
potential as any other kid.Copy !req
1467. But what we didn't have before
you, was the belief...Copy !req
1468. That we could fulfill it.Copy !req
1469. I never could have allowed
myself to imagine the things ICopy !req
1470. did in your class.Copy !req
1471. About who I could be, what I
could do.Copy !req
1472. And that's something I get to
have now.Copy !req
1473. I wouldn't have that if it
weren't for you.Copy !req
1474. And I'll never...Copy !req
1475. ever forget that.Copy !req
1476. But sometimes, believing is not
enough.Copy !req
1477. Sometimes...Copy !req
1478. the reality is the reality.Copy !req
1479. Look around...Copy !req
1480. This is my reality.Copy !req
1481. There's no escaping it.Copy !req
1482. And people like me...Copy !req
1483. like Nico...Copy !req
1484. We don't get to escape.Copy !req
1485. I understand.Copy !req
1486. Mr. Juárez.Copy !req
1487. Mr. Noyola.Copy !req
1488. Paloma doesn't need this
anymore.Copy !req
1489. You should take it back. It
might get damaged here.Copy !req
1490. But... what is it?Copy !req
1491. She borrowed it from school, for
a science project.Copy !req
1492. The school could never afford
something like this.Copy !req
1493. She didn't borrow this.Copy !req
1494. She made it.Copy !req
1495. What...?Copy !req
1496. That's impossible.Copy !req
1497. Isn't everything impossible
until it is done?Copy !req
1498. Wow.Copy !req
1499. Paloma is an extraordinary girl,
Mr. Noyola.Copy !req
1500. I only wonder if you know just
how extraordinary.Copy !req
1501. Don't say that, Maestro.Copy !req
1502. This is hers.Copy !req
1503. It's hers.Copy !req
1504. Can we make one more stop?Copy !req
1505. Paloma?Copy !req
1506. You should be resting, Papa.Copy !req
1507. Come, sit with me.Copy !req
1508. Are you feeling all right?Copy !req
1509. It's all gonna be ok.Copy !req
1510. That list of yours... have phone
numbers?Copy !req
1511. Profe?Copy !req
1512. Look at that!Copy !req
1513. Over there.Copy !req
1514. Sit wherever you like.Copy !req
1515. Hurry up, everyone.Copy !req
1516. - C'mon, guys, we're running
late! - I'm coming!Copy !req
1517. How are we doing?Copy !req
1518. Just a few more.Copy !req
1519. Look.Copy !req
1520. - What's up with him? - Due to
numerous reports ofCopy !req
1521. irregularities,Copy !req
1522. they decided to change this
year's test.Copy !req
1523. Perhaps they got a lot of tips
from concerned citizens.Copy !req
1524. At least we're all on a level
playing field.Copy !req
1525. What?Copy !req
1526. Everyone take your seats...Copy !req
1527. Do not touch the materials in
front of you until the testCopy !req
1528. begins.Copy !req
1529. Ok everyone, let's quiet down
please.Copy !req
1530. We're about to begin.Copy !req
1531. All right guys, listen; real
quick.Copy !req
1532. This test measures how much you
know, okay?Copy !req
1533. Maybe... this year I didn't
teach you everything you need toCopy !req
1534. know.Copy !req
1535. But you did learn how to think.Copy !req
1536. So, there might be some things
that you don't recognize...Copy !req
1537. but there's nothing in this test
you can't figure out.Copy !req
1538. Okay?Copy !req
1539. Okay?
Got it?Copy !req
1540. Got it?Copy !req
1541. Actually...Copy !req
1542. Actually there is one thing I
want you to know before you takeCopy !req
1543. this test:Copy !req
1544. You have all taught me so...
very much.Copy !req
1545. And I am so very proud of each
and every single one of you.Copy !req
1546. All right! Now let's go kick
some ass!Copy !req
1547. You will have three hours to
complete the test.Copy !req
1548. You should try to answer as many
questions as you can.Copy !req
1549. Any answers left blank will
count against youCopy !req
1550. Good luck!Copy !req
1551. And...Copy !req
1552. let's begin.Copy !req
1553. The year before Sergio's
arrival, only 55% of hisCopy !req
1554. students passed the ENLACE in
Math and 69% in Language.Copy !req
1555. None received a score of
"Excellent."Copy !req
1556. In 2012, after a year with
Sergio,Copy !req
1557. 93% passed the Mathematics
portion, with 63% scoringCopy !req
1558. "Excellent",Copy !req
1559. and 97.5% passed the Language
portion, with 72% scoringCopy !req
1560. "Excellent".Copy !req
1561. Ten of Sergio's students scored
in the top 0.1% nationally inCopy !req
1562. Mathematics.Copy !req
1563. Paloma Noyola achieved the
highest score...Copy !req
1564. in all of Mexico.Copy !req
1565. She became a national sensation
and received a private grantCopy !req
1566. that allowed her to move to a
new home.Copy !req
1567. Sergio Juárez Correa still lives
in MatamorosCopy !req
1568. where he continues to teach
sixth grade.Copy !req
1569. José Urbina López Elementary
School still has no computerCopy !req
1570. lab.Copy !req
