In 1935, Walt Hazlitt teaches biology and agriculture classes at the local high school in Plainston. He's a man who tries new ideas, and he's a popular teacher with the students. They say, "He really trusts us, and respects us, and thinks we can do the work ourselves, helping each other. It gives us a lot of confidence in ourselves." But his tenure is not without its problems, as is revealed through a series of letters, journal entries, and editor notes. The Plainston Chronicles: Volume II follows Walt, his friends, and associates through their trials and tribulations from 1935 through 1951. From race to athletics, relationships to prom, The Plainston Chronicles: Volume II captures the issues of the day. More importantly, this novel offers a model for educational reform. It envisions a school that addresses the whole child, not just book learning. It hopes for a school where at an early age, children learn to care about and for their fellow students. It proposes a school that is interactive with its community and impacts it in a positive way-the effects rippling out beyond the immediate community and ultimately affecting governments and the way nations are run.
