Everyone remembers the college valedictorian, but what about the students who ranked last in the class?
I know what it's like to be near the bottom (notice the C+ in Archery) and I can tell you that hanging on for dear life is every bit as challenging as finishing first.
Join us as we explore the lives of people not originally destined for greatness. We’re seeking those who finished at - or very near - the bottom of their classes. Was that ranking an indicator of things to come or was it an aberration? I know my story, but what about the others? With your help, we can uncover the secrets to finishing last and learn what they tell us about the future.444 out of 453? That’s pretty bad. But I found someone who finished 722 out of 723. That’s even worse - but we can do better!
We know these people are out there. We’ve all been to school with them. They might be our friends. They might be our family. They might even be us.
We are confident that the lives our “maledictorians” have led will surprise and delight. It doesn't matter if they're 25 or 85 - we just need to find them!

HOW YOU CAN HELP |

| SEND US YOUR WORST REPORT CARD |

We're looking for report cards with witty and/or scathing comments by exasperated teachers. We will include the best of the worst in a companion piece to the film.
My own example: the one and only comment from my high school World History teacher: 'Indolence is not an endearing quality.'
