Author Ed Boland Discusses His Year Teaching in NYC (Part 3)
After years of working as a non-profit executive, Ed Boland decided to become a high school teacher. In his book The Battle for Room 314: My Year of Hope and Despair in a New York City High School, Boland tells the story of how his dream of making a difference became a nightmare when his idealism collided with the appalling reality of his students' lives and a seemingly broken education system.
