Fitting In, Standing Out: Navigating the Social Challenges of High School to Get an Education

In American high schools, teenagers must navigate complex youth cultures that often prize being 'real' while punishing difference. This book makes the case that the social dynamics of high school for teenagers who do not fit in socially can disrupt educational trajectories after high school.
