"An unstoppable principal's race to save a failing high school from.
In this powerful rejoinder to the prevailing winds of American education policy, Brick examines the do-or-die year at Texas' Reagan High when an unproven principal takes over a failing school. Compelling, character-driven narrative journalism, this work pays tribute to the great American high school.
