Front of the class [videorecording] / [presented by] Hallmark Hall of Fame ; produced by Andrew Gottlieb ; written by Tom Rickman ; directed by Peter Werner.
When he was growing up, Brad started making funny noises - all the time. Only Brad and his supportive mother knew he could not control it. He was teased, misunderstood, and punished for disrupting class. By the time he was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, Brad had learned to hate school. When an understanding school principal offered encouragement, Brad decided to become a teacher. Now he has to find a school where someone with Tourettes can teach in front of a class. After 24 schools turn him down, he discovers a school that will finally give him a chance.
