What is the name of this movie?(I didn't get to see the whole thing)?

Hello. I am looking for the name of a certain movie. Its about a teacher who joins a new school that is desperate for good teachers, teaches there for a while, but wants something more. The faculty dedicates a parking space to him, which is when he realizes that he isn't happy there.

He then moves to New York and applies to a very rough/ghetto school where the kids won't listen to him at all. When he first walks up to it, one of the teachers was in the middle of a fist-fight with one of the students, and he is fired right as the guy walks up. The principle ends up hiring this new teacher, but warning him that the kids are impossible.They throw papers in class, deliberately text, yell, scream, and completely ignore him(this is in a very urban ghetto school).

At first he tries yelling at them, which doesn't work. Then he tries remodeling the room to get them interested, which still doesn't work. THIS IS AS FAR AS I GOT AND I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE MOVIE :(.
