Meet Mr. Munro, the teacher of Room 202, an 11th-grade homeroom at Lincoln High. Meet Carmen Gonzales. Carmen is a Mexican-American who lives in the projects, has two jobs, and is failing English class.
Meet Ashley Davis. Ashley is a rich, smart cheerleader who gets straight A’s.
So if Ashley is so perfect, why is she falling asleep in class, missing cheerleading practice, and why is her hair such a mess?
Carmen Gonzales has much worse problems than just bad hair. Her family might be moving away — far away — forever. Should Carmen go with her family, or should she stay and graduate from Lincoln High?
As you can probably guess, these two girls are not friends. Now, for some reason, Mr Munro thinks they can help each other — but how? You’ll have to read this book to find out.
