Sinopse
JFK High School, in run-down Newark, New Jersey, is a public school for all types of students with special education needs. Janet Mino has taught her class of young men with autism for four years. When they all graduate, they will leave the security of the public school system forever. Best Kept Secret follows Ms. Mino and her students over the year and a half before graduation. The clock is ticking to find them a place in the adult world – a job or placement in a recreational center – so they do not end up where their predecessors have, sitting at home, institutionalized, or on the streets.
