Corporate High School [Paperback]

Harriet has to start at a new school. Switching schools is always rough, but it's harder for her because The Corporation got her dad fired and tossed her mom into jail. For decades, The Corporation has been using schools to make sure everyone does what they're told. But there's something strange going on at Harriet's new school. If she can just crack the code, she might learn how to fight back! Gormans gut-wrenching satire delivers the lesson that when a school is not a school, learning is rebellion and knowledge is a weapon.  Karen Eisenbrey, author of The Gospel According to St. Rage Benjamin Gormans Corporate High School is a must-read for anyone interested in joining the fight to save public education. We proudly proclaim this book as badass and spot on about the fight to save the foundation of our democracy - strong public education for all.  Marla Kilfoyle, General Manager Badass Teachers Association Ben Gorman clearly knows high school students, and the importance of a free and public education for them.
