hon-or stu-dent [n, obs] one who successfully resists an educational system's effort to eradicate independent thought; SEE TROUBLEMAKER, REBEL, UNPERSON, OUTLAW
At a typical public high school in an average American city, a student is asking questions his teachers cannot answer. To his guidance counselor, his behavior is inexplicable and unnerving. To his father, the school principal, he is an embarrassment. To the future of government-controlled education, he is a threat. Kevin Saunders should be a straight-A student, yet he is failing his easiest classes as if by design.
Honor Student is the story of a young man's fight for ownership of his mind, and of an ex-teacher's struggle against self-betrayal. Its theme is addressed to anyone who has ever attended public school, but particularly to those whose minds may yet survive it.
