Every teacher knows that a day in the classroom is always full of
surprises, successes, failures, and inspirational moments. In the
poignant memoir "School House Diary," longtime educator shares
anecdotes-both tragic and humorous-that detail his nearly thirty
years as a social studies teacher, coach, and student advocate in
Cincinnati, Ohio. Jerry Roberts began his career as a high school
history teacher not as a green twenty-two-year-old recent college
graduate, but as a four-year Army veteran and father of two young
children. As he details the antics, humorous incidents, and human
tragedy that often unfolded on a daily basis in his classroom,
Roberts offers an eye-opening glimpse into the life of a teacher-a
life that often includes switching roles from history teacher to
surrogate parent to armchair psychologist. From the helicopter Mom
who had difficulty letting her daughter grow up to the pregnant
twelve-year-old student to the driven high school student who
learned that leadership requires building trust in others, Roberts
shines a fascinating light into the challenging world of an
educator. "School House Diary" is a compelling collection of essays
that prove that teachers truly make a difference every day in the
lives of their students.
