by Anthony J. Caruso (Author)
Tony Caruso took a job teaching high school while enjoying his semi-retirement years as a consulting engineer. What he encountered was shockingly low academic, moral, and disciplinary standards in a school system that was light-years removed from the one in which he was educated a generation earlier. Here he chronicles the humorous and tragic tales of his real-life students, while giving you an insight into what really happens after you drop off your kids. He praises some of the brave educators who still fight to make a difference, but shows no mercy on the politicians, bureaucrats, teachers' unions, and school administrators who have allowed our schools to become the corrupt, academically - anemic, indoctrination centers they are today. Set Our Children Free is a call to arms to rescue our educational system from the tyranny of those who have stolen it from us. The radical solutions proposed in this book are hopefully the start of an education revolution. Tony has taught in both high school and college, in a private school and a home school. He has a bachelor of science degree in engineering and a Juris Doctor degree in law.
