Synopsis "Kids Are Stupid. (And Other Lies The Education System Teaches Us)"

If you step inside a contemporary high school, you might think the kids have gone crazy. They now bark at each other in the hallways. They tear soap dispensers out of walls for TikTok clout. They freak out when they are away from their phones for forty-five seconds.
It's simple to compare this generation with previous generations and say, "Kids are dumb."
But that is a lie.
KIDS ARE STUPID (And Other Lies the Education System Teaches Us) is a funny, poignant and brutally honest manifesto that contends students aren't stupid - they're stupefied. They are the product of an education system that replaced critical thinking with standardized testing, accountability with "grace" and resilience with bubble wrap.
Framed around the "T-TESS" - the soul-destroying evaluation rubric the government uses to rate teachers in Texas - the book reverses and undercuts the system's own metrics to take apart the architecture of bureaucracy destroying public education. From "Lawnmower Parents" who use 504 plans as a weapon to procure extra testing time for their children, to the lunacy of code red drills that end with teachers brandishing staplers as a last line of defense, this book reveals how we are failing a generation by disallowing them from ever failing.
This isn't a dry policy book. It is Kitchen Confidential for the classroom. It comes from the unique viewpoint of a high school dropout who has somehow become a High School English teacher - a "Blue Collar Scholar" who knows respect is not earned but given, that "No" is a complete sentence and one of the only ways to teach literature is to allow students to shoot you with a water gun.
