School to Screen is a free program that invites grades 6-12 to integrate film into their curriculum. Educators and their classes visit the Ruth Sokolof Theater to attend a film screening, enjoy a free lunch, and engage in a critical discussion about film with Film Streams’ Education Manager, Paul Sanchez.

Our program is designed to meet state standards in Media Arts as well as in individual subject areas.

All screenings begin at 11am unless otherwise noted and take place in our Ruth Sokolof Theater in North Downtown Omaha. For more program information, visit our School to Screen page.
