All of the names of children and minors, and many of the names of adults, mentioned in the book have been changed to protect the identities of those individuals. One of the reasons why it's difficult to write a book that critiques education is because so many people who work with children have good intentions. When I describe organizations, teachers, supervisors, or classmates in this book, my only purpose is to use my past interactions in education to show how we can improve our efforts to develop all students. I believe in education because I believe in the capacity for each person, including myself, to grow. I pray this book begins to shed some light on exactly how we can do that so all of our children will have a more hopeful future.\n
