"It was one of the most famous trials of all time set in Dayton Tennessee. Next year will Mark the 100th anniversary of the #ScopesTrial 100 years. Today a museum stands where the trial once took place dedicating to educating kids about what actually happened.
Tonight we take a closer look at a very interesting re-enactment in "What's Right With Our Schools"."
