His
work with disadvantaged students in rural North Carolina and in
inner-city Harlem garnered worldwide attention, and he was
invited to the White House on three separate occasions to be
honored by the President and Mrs. Clinton.
Mr. Clark's tireless work and dedication to making a difference
in the lives of children led him to be named Disney's American
Teacher of the Year in 2000. Since receiving that distinction,
he has been interviewed by Katie Couric on the Today Show, and
he has appeared twice on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Ms. Winfrey
even featured him in her magazine and named him her first
"Phenomenal Man.".
In addition, Ron’s experiences as a teacher are the subject of
the critically acclaimed movie, “The Ron Clark Story,” that
stars Matthew Perry in the lead role.
