Product Description
A Pulitzer prize-winning journalist spends a year immersed in the high-pressure world of a competitive public high schoolâ??where teens chase 4.0 grades point averages, survive on as little as four hours of sleep, and chug lattes like waterâ??and discovers the human story of what it takes to be a top student in America. Humes introduces a cast of passionate students, and touches on topics relevant to parents, teachers, administrators, and politicians, including destruction of equal education in America; standardized testing and cheating by students, parents, schools, and governments; public schools that succeed; and over-testing in our nation's schools.
