GOLD. Fantastic.
I love the play on their school name. Since it is an unusual name, I think this advertisement would help someone remember the school. I love the bright colors with the photographs. The content below the hook line was also original and to the point. I thought the length was ideal too.
Love the play on words, KEEP.

I love how the messaging with each image is so strongly associated with their mission, "Men of character from boys of promise." I truly believe that character is important to this school and they look at how to develop it in many areas.

Wow! I watched this a few times and each time I got choked up. What a great hook at the beginning and then the tie to the ending is so powerful. I think this school knows their target audience and how to offer a way to make them feel empowered.
My daughter has learning challenges — this resonated with me as a parent. Loved the compelling "voices" in the beginning. So heartbreaking and then the tone completely changes. Love it!
