The growth of the American high school that occurred in the
twentieth century is among the most remarkable educational, social,
and cultural phenomena of the twentieth century. The history of
education, however, has often reduced the institution to its
educational function alone, thus missing its significantly broader
importance. As a corrective, this collection of essays serves four
ends: as an introduction to the history of the high school; as a
reevaluation of the power of narratives that privilege the
perspective of school leaders and the curriculum; as a glimpse into
the worlds created by students and their communities; and, most
critically, as a means of sparking conversations about where we
might look next for stories worth telling.
