Summary

• "What would students say about their schools, curriculum, administrators, and teachers if given the chance, without risk of repercussion? In this era of accountability and the demise of "good education," their answers are more than pertinent. Thirteen Years of School: What Students Really Think gives those in grades K-12 the opportunity to tell us - the public, parents, and school personnel - what going to school is like for them and their peers."
• "Lisa Scherff invited students from a wide range of backgrounds and geographic locations to submit stories, letters, essays, and art representing their viewpoints concerning American schools. Among the topics are stress, future goals, favorite teachers, harassment, and homophobia. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to improve the educational experience for all students."--Jacket
