Nathaniel has gotten into trouble for what may be the last time. After being caught with the principal’s eighteen-year-old niece, Nathaniel finds himself expelled, and there aren’t any schools that want him now that he’s been expelled from three different institutes. But there is one place still willing to give him a shot: an all-boys boarding school, an hour out into the middle of nowhere. It’s a school exclusively for naughty boys who have run out of options. The rules are strict and the school has a one-strike policy, so the students have to be very creative and careful when it comes to getting a little bit of action.

The Church Impotent
Author: Leon J. Podles
Publisher: Spence Publishing Company
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The current preoccupation with the role of women in the church obscures the more serious problem of the perennial absence of men. This provocative book argues that Western churches have become women's clubs, that the emasculation of Christianity is dangerous for the church and society, and that a masculine presence can and must be restored.After documenting the highly feminized state of Western Christianity, Dr. Podles identifies the masculine traits that once characterized the Christian life but are now commonly considered incompatible with it. He contends that though masculinity has been marginalized within Christianity, it cannot be expunged from human society. If detached from Christianity, it reappears as a substitute religion, with unwholesome and even horrific consequences. The church, too, is diminished by its emasculation. Dr. Podles concludes by considering how Christianity's virility might be restored.In the otherwise stale and overworked field of gender studies, The Church Impotent is the only book to confront the lopsidedly feminine cast of modern Christianity with a profound analysis of its historical and sociological roots.

Why Boys Fail
Author: Richard Whitmire
Publisher: AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn
ISBN: 0814420176
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Selected as one of the Top 5 Educational Books by Literacy News The signs and statistics are undeniable: boys are falling behind in school. Contrary to conventional wisdom, the biggest culprits are not video games, pop culture, or female-dominated schools biased toward girls. The real problem is that boys have been thrust into a bewildering new school environment that demands high-level reading and writing skills long before they are capable of handling them. Lacking the ability to compete, boys fall farther and farther behind. Eventually, the problem gets pushed into college, where close to 60% of the graduates are women. In a time when even cops, construction foremen, and machine operators need post-high school degrees, that's a problem. Why Boys Fail takes a hard look at how this ominous reality came to be, how it has worsened in recent years, and why attempts to resolve it often devolve into finger-pointing and polarizing politics. But the book also shares some good news. Amidst the alarming proof of failure among boys-around the world-there are also inspiring case studies of schools where something is going right. Each has come up with realistic ways to make sure that every student-male and female-has the tools to succeed in school and later in life. Educators and parents alike will take heart in these promising developments, and heed the book's call to action-not only to demand solutions but also to help create them for their own students and children.
