Thriving inThriving in a Public School
How One Classroom Sparked a Movement
Educator and author Allen “Al” Levie tells how students, teachers, and community members organized for immigrant rights, racial justice, and equity in public education.
One classroom. A movement beyond its walls.
At Horlick High School in Racine, Wisconsin, a classroom became a place where students could connect what they were learning to the issues shaping their lives. The book follows the people who built trust, found their voices, and worked together for change.
It is a story of youth leadership and teacher commitment, and a reminder that schools can help young people understand their power to shape their communities.
