This documentary the problem that the people of Tallahatchie, MS are dealing with it multiple generations of illiteracy. Lalee is a woman who struggles to have the necessities for his family much less have the proper education to help her grandkids. The West Tallahatchie school is on probation due to low test scores. Reggie Barns, superintendent, was hired to push the kids to raise the schools test scores. If the scores weren't getting any better then the State of Mississippi would take over. I think one thing that needs to happen is for the schools to provide some way to provide for the kids who cant afford school supplies. If a child does not have schools supplies then they don't want to school and they fall behind. Another thing is for parents to get help so that they can help teach their kids or grandchildren at the comfort of their homes. No parent wants to see their child go through what they have gone through, they want to see them succeed. The only way for children like lalee's grandkids to grow in their education is to have the proper education but how do you fix it? Its going to take a lot of time and patients along with caring for the students.
