But Lenny just lost his mom, and his Latin professor dad is better with dead languages than actual human beings. Lenny doesn&’t want to be part of some learning experiment. He just wants to be left alone. Yet if Lenny is going to make it as a middle schooler on a college campus, he&’s going to need help.

Capricorn Anderson (Cap for short) has never watched a television show. He&’s never tasted pizza. He&’s never heard of a wedgie. And he has never, even in his wildest dreams, thought he&’d live anywhere but the Garland Farm commune with his hippie grandmother and homeschool instructor, Rain. But all this changes when Rain is stuck in the hospital and Cap is sent to Claverage Middle School (dubbed C Average by the kids). Cap doesn't exactly fit in at school, with his long, ungroomed hair and hemp clothes; in fact, he's the biggest nerd around. But when he&’s elected eighth grade president as a joke, Cap is more puzzled than ever, and soon the joke grows into something more. Will Cap be the greatest president in the history of C Average or the biggest punch line? Rife with Gordon Korman&’s signature humor, Schooled is a heartwarming story about friendship, kindness, and finding your place—which may not always be where you think it is.

by Norman H. FinkelsteinWhen Booker T. Washington, the famed African American educator, asked Julius Rosenwald, the wealthy president of Sears, Roebuck and Company and noted philanthropist, to help him build well-designed and fully equipped schools for black children, the face of education in the South changed for the better.

Finkelstein spotlights one man's legacy and the power of community action. Includes quotations, a detailed bibliography, and index.
