Synopsis:
Jamie Fitzpatrick and Nona Alberts are two women from opposites sides of the social and economic track, but they have one thing in common: a mission to fix their community’s broken school and ensure a bright future for their children. The two women refuse to let any obstacles stand in their way as they battle a bureaucracy that’s hopelessly mired in traditional thinking, and they seek to re-energize a faculty that has lost its passion for teaching.
