Many school districts are pushing students to go to four-year colleges, which is great, but what about those that have no interest in a four-year college right after high school? For the past few years I have taught senior English and each year I pose the question, “What do you want to learn in high school, to help prepare you for life after high school?” I have found this question to be met with surprise and additional questions. Students are use to their teachers telling them what they will learn in the class, not asking what they want to learn. Students have asked for information from “How to apply for college/FAFSA” to “How much would I have to earn to live on my own?” Students know that my class is not only an English class (and one they must pass to graduate) but also a class where I strive to help prepare them for “life after high school.” “We are always told that anyone over the age of eighteen should know what they are doing. The fact is, they don't.” ― Rae Earl, My Life Uploaded No matter where their path after high school leads them, my students are aware that there will be some type of reading required. I plan on using these books to help my students explore what options they have and which necessities they will require after graduation. I have several articles that I use to help them explore the world in their future, but I believe that this book, a class set of them, would make a great resource, one from a different voice than their teacher, who finished her years of high school too long ago to be fully relevant today.
