Opis

Save Them All contains true and shocking stories of underprivileged and troubled kids living in the beautiful bay area of northern California. The book is written with empathy, irony, a touch of comedy and gives deep insight into the lives of everyday kids, political issues, struggles facing our public school teachers and the societal issues that bring on many of these problems.

Many of the stories contain disturbing accounts of the issues facing the day to day lives of the "at risk" students and the struggles of a rookie teacher contending with the conflict between her desire to contribute and the reality of society's failures. Topics are suicide, street gangs, drug abuse, murder, racism, child abuse and neglect and the struggles that many everyday public school teachers are faced with.

This book is not a condemnation of our public schools but is meant to be insight into the realities that politicians and society refuse to address. This book is a must read if you care about kids, schools, the politics of education and how to make a difference. Save Them All will shock and inspire, educate and entertain, laugh and cry and possibly influence the reader to implement change. All names have been changed for privacy and confidentiality.
