Adequate Yearly Progress by Roxanna Elden

4.0

As someone who spent 18 years teaching in public schools before moving on to an independent school, this book was hilariously accurate regarding the lives of teachers today caught up in each educational fad some misguided politician or superintendent wants to foist upon them. I laughed out loud at multiple points. The characters seemed real based on teachers I've worked with, and the situations with students were also prescient. Any teacher will enjoy reading this fictional novel that honestly could be labeled "nonfiction," since most teachers will find it all too real.
