Episode Details

Zee, an 86-year-old retired teacher, decides to go back to the happiest time of her life to make peace with the path she has chosen and reconnect with her students from the early ’90s in East Harlem. Most of her students were non-readers, but through her non-traditional methods, they produced a pretty significant body of poetry, which she has kept all these years. Finding the kids will give Zee the closure she needs and also a sense of what her legacy is as a teacher and as a human being.
