Being a teacher of 40 years now, I enjoyed the entire story. It's always inspiring and motivational to me when a gifted teacher is recognized for the great work they do in the classroom, and, in this case, on the stage. I like how the teacher, Lou Volpe, continue to develop his drama program in a struggling and troubled high school into the premier high school drama program in the country. It was refreshing to read the drama program being the most desired program for students to enter at Truman High School. It was doubly meaningful the author of the book was a former student in the Truman High School drama program and returned to write about the program and the beloved teacher who led it for 44 years. I've never been a teacher at any school for longer than 10 years, so it was eye opening reading experience for me to see how a dedicated teacher spends most of his adult life and entire career at one school. I recommend this book to all those teachers thinking about leaving the profession due to burnout and those people considering education as their chosen profession.
I've had the privilege of seeing several of Mr. Volpe's plays at Truman, and for most years his productions had more meaningful artistic content than many of the productions in professional regional theatre. The story is compelling (I read the book in one - long - sitting) and the message of what Lou achieved with these 'blue collar' kids is relevant anywhere in the world. ALL kids from all backgrounds are capable of greatness as long as those kids have someone who believes in them, and have gifted teachers and motivating parents. Read this book, then find a way to stimulate greatness in education within your own community. Also, can't wait to see the NBC TV series based on this book, in the Fall of 2017.
"Drama High" is an enthralling read. I highly recommend it. Writer Michael Sokolove has placed layer upon layer of brilliant writing into this work. Headline writers have tabbed this book to be about a "real-life 'Glee'" or "'Glee' meets 'Friday Night Lights'." Those are too pithy and don't do justice to the book's impressive scope, depth and emotional resonance.Ostensibly, Sokolove's book is a paean to his former teacher, Lou Volpe, retiring after four decades at his post as drama teacher at Harry S Truman High School in Levittown, PA. While the book focuses on Volpe's career as its touchstone, so many other excellent themes here including: the role of arts programs in American high schools; the effect of budget cuts; theater programs' position in lower- to middle-class communities; the regression of the middle class; the roots, struggles and perseverance of Levittown; Volpe's family history and sexual identity; the stories of Volpe's ex-wife and now-adult only child; the business of high school musical; the kids' stories, motivations, fears and dreams...and so much more.Lou Volpe is an American hero.
This is a work of sensitivity, compassion, and love: three aspects that are mandatory in successful, inspiring teaching. It is a work about a gifted teacher, his students, and a country that has forgotten and ignores what it takes to be that kind of teacher who can reach a student. This work could have been sappy and sentimental, but it rises above that tendency in works about to teachers and offers the truth about America's education system. For Volpe to have succeeded over the span of forty years, defying the forces of government and economy against him, speak of a gift unparalleled in our K-12 system. It is said that a teacher should feel successful if he/she reaches just one student in a class and changes that student's life in doing so. The way this author presents this teacher is that he reached all students in all classes. What stops the text from becoming fiction is that the author doesn't simply say Volpe reached all students, he shows it and lets the actions lead readers to that conclusion. This work is a book for teachers, a work that should inspire and invigorate. Well done.
Mr. Sokolove has penned a rousing and hearty portrait of Levittown, PA drama teacher Lou Volpe. Most of us, I think, wish we'd been blessed with a teacher like Mr. Volpe, whose work over 40 years stimulated the impressionable minds of teens and magically transported them to a world of imagination and expansion, while invigorating their parents and inspiring a community that's had its fair share of struggles. It leaves no doubt that teachers have an opportunity to make a difference, to change the world (or at least a small, but significant, part of it).I wish there a law was on the books requiring that anyone over 30 who thinks our schools don't need to, or even shouldn't, teach the arts, read this splendid and "Incredible True Story of a Brilliant Teacher, a Struggling Town and the Magic of Theater."Buy and read this book and u will be Inspired with a capital "I."
This is a remarkable and unexpected story of a high school where the drama program is not only successful, it's the MOST successful thing in the school, maybe the town. If you don't believe in the value of theater in high schools, you will after reading this (but let's be honest you probably won't read this). At times the author inserts himself into the narrative too much for my taste, but that calms down after the beginning. He does also get a couple of basic facts about musicals wrong (including the one he sat through hours of rehearsal for) that make me question some of the stuff I can't personally fact check, but I'm nit-picking. The epilogue had me crying on the subway.
