Let the Little Light Shine tells a powerfully emotional, David versus Goliath story of a prestigious school's struggle to survive institutional racism and gentrification. In 2013, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) ordered the closure of 49 underperforming learning centers. Included on this list was the National Teacher's Academy (NTA), a Level 1+, the highest academic certification possible, K-8th grade school located in the South Loop. Documentary filmmaker Kevin Shaw chronicles NTA's parents, students, and devoted teachers fight to save their school at the end of a 5-year moratorium.
