Important! "Finding Kind"
Finding Kind, an important anti bulling documentary, is being screening at Skyline High School on January 31st and at Issaquah High School on February 1st. Both screenings are at 6:30 PM. This complimentary showing is made possible by the Issaquah Secondary School PTSA’s, the Issaquah Schools Foundation and Issaquah PTSA Council. Each showing will be followed by a facilitated discussion by the filmmakers, Lauren Parsekian and Molly Thompson. Liberty PTSA is one of the sponsors of this program.

These showings are for ISD Secondary students & their parents. The post movie discussion is geared towards secondary students and is not appropriate for elementary students.

These showings are not open to the general public. Doors will open at 5:45 for seating and ISD ASB student ID cards will be required for entry prior to 6:25. After 6:25 remaining open seating will be available to people without ISD ASB cards.
About the documentary:
In Finding Kind, filmmakers Lauren Parsekian and Molly Thompson, who met while in school at Pepperdine University, set out in a cross country journey of discovery and education. Interviewing women and girls along the way about their lives and experiences, Parsekian and Thompson find, among all of the unique personal stories, some universal truths about growing up as girls. Finding Kind is a document of that journey, and of the filmmakers’ quest to take these experiences and find a common ground of kindness and mutual respect. In addition to all of the individual girls and women who share their personal experiences about girl on girl bullying with the filmmakers, Parsekian and Thompson include interviews with respected experts and authors in the fields of psychology, education, and the interrelationships of women and girls.
