@tcboyle A colleague & I created a HS unit that paired The Tortilla Curtain with Of Mice & Men. The kids were able to pull out so many parallel themes & issues from TTC. It created a space for some of the richest dialogue I've experienced with HS students.

Unpopular opinion: I don't think high schoolers should be forced to read classic literature. I know, I wasn't ready until much later.

Rather, I'd like to see them read contemporary fiction that meets them where they are and turns them into lifelong readers.

That's our future.
