Episode 2 shares powerful stories about three kindergarten students from a remarkable elementary school: Jay, Vee and Em. The school staff are working hard to ensure their students have the specific tools they require for optimum learning. Sometimes this means books to read, art supplies to draw with, soft mats to sit and dance on, or worms to examine and study. But at other times, this might mean new glasses, education about nutritional food, or a visit to a child psychiatrist.
