“A Coat of History” captures the decades-long mission of a motivated community in Connecticut to physically renovate an 1865 one-room schoolhouse while reigniting the spirit and memories of those it educated. Will this small town, inspired by America’s 250^th birthday commemorations, find the resources to preserve this symbol of the country’s earliest endeavors to provide public education for all?
