The year is 2026. The future has arrived.
America’s last remaining teacher, Mr. Thacker, is on a mission to find others like him when he comes across you. Without any other options, he asks with you to enter his mysterious machine and travel back to school as a student.
Once inside, you experience a day in the life of a student in America’s public schools.
But this is not the school you remember.
Each class you attend exposes more unbelievable truths about today’s education system that most parents and adults never see firsthand; Teachers have vanished, replaced by Program Facilitators who keep students clicking instead of thinking, the evil District sabotages learning to serve their new masters, the Administration, in the name of research, enforce policies that masquerade as learning and discipline. And worst of all—the light has gone out of the eyes of all of the $tudents.
After every class, Mr. Thacker pulls back the curtain, revealing the real classroom experiences that inspired the fiction. Then he takes you back to his own first year teaching, uncovering how today's education system evolved into tomorrow's nightmare.
Grab your schedule and travel back...back to school.
Discover the answers to the questions no one has been able to solve.
Who is this Mr. Thacker and what is this machine he’s sent you back in?
What happened to all the teachers?
Who controls our schools?
Why can't our children learn?
Can you make it through your day back at school?
Will you save our students?
