| 0:02 | SCHOOL? |
| 0:04 | >> In a community in Kenya with no school |
| 0:06 | for young children to go to, a woman |
| 0:08 | named Roselyn began teaching under the |
| 0:11 | shade of a tree. |
| 0:12 | >> We used to sit on the floor. There were |
| 0:13 | no desk under this tree. |
| 0:15 | >> Yes, it was my class. |
| 0:16 | >> Initially, only a few children came. |
| 0:18 | Then more and more arrived until the |
| 0:20 | shade of the tree was no longer enough. |
| 0:22 | Eventually, parents eager for their kids |
| 0:25 | to learn began to build classrooms for |
| 0:27 | Roselyn and the kids. But the challenges |
| 0:29 | didn't stop there. When it rained, the |
| 0:31 | iron roof was too loud to learn under. |
| 0:33 | On hot days, the rooms filled with dust |
| 0:36 | and there were no floors, no kitchen, |
| 0:38 | and no running water. When we learned |
| 0:40 | what Rossman had built and how hard the |
| 0:42 | children were still fighting to learn, |
| 0:44 | we knew this was the perfect place to |
| 0:46 | build a new school. |
