Riassunto

This book not only tells about the hardships and tributes of the life of John Calvert but also gives an in-depth view of the educational system today from the eyes of a man who has been involved with it almost fifty years. It includes concerns and complaints from many people in several states in the country, who have seen issues in the system as well and voice their views and hope to be heard. It takes every position in the school—from student, parent, all the way to principal, teacher, and superintendent—and holds them accountable for what is happening in the schools today, giving them a new perspective of what the public really thinks and lets them know what is being said about them.

One of the most important things that this book does is give a brilliant example of how schools should be run by providing the plans and activities that have actually worked for years! This includes copies of letters given to students and parents, the discipline policies that work, and the in-school suspension handbook that John and others have lived by to make their schools successful.

Su questo libro

L'autore:

John Calvert was born in Inman, South Carolina, on August 22, 1928. He was the seventh child in a family of thirteen. In eighth grade, he was thrown out for being disruptive and decided to join the navy so he would not be a burden and a disappointment to his parents. After several years in the navy, he returned home and returned to school and graduated from Wofford College in 1952. He was offered his first job in education in Bethune and worked there until 1958, when he came back to Spartanburg County to marry the love of his life, Mary York. They both have been involved in the educational system ever since.
