American Teacher details Doug Graney’s journey to becoming a celebrated teacher at Herndon High School. Following a career packed with political and historical field trips; holding government officials accountable including Colin Powell, Sandra Day O’Connor, and many members of Congress; generating spirited debate; and creating the largest congressional intern placement program in the country, American Teacher is the story of a man dedicated to his students and their education, no matter what.
This book is fantastic! Douglas Graney bring us with him on his journey of becoming a teacher and his years as a teacher. His writing is brilliant and his story is fun and informative. I enjoyed reading about the field trips, students, and thoughts on some political issues. I highly recommend reading this book.
