"Jankowski has a great way of showing what it's really like to
be a teacher. F'ing hard. But f'ing awesome."
-- Karen Alpert, New York Times bestselling author of I
Heart My Little A-Holes "I've always said mothers have the
hardest job, but after reading Schooled, I want to change my
answer. Through humor, heart, and a hint of inappropriate honesty,
Jankowski has written a love letter to her profession and given the
rest of us a glimpse of the toughest job in the world."
--Jen Mann, New York Times bestselling author of People I
Want to Punch in the Throat "Teachers: If you've ever been
mistaken for a student, wondered why you're still doing it or
caught a student acting like a jackass at your expense, this is
your book."
--Clint Edwards, bestselling author of I'm Sorry...Love, Your
Husband and Silence is a Scary Sound "Schooled is
a beautifully written love-letter to both students and educators.
This is one of the best books about education I've read. I can't
wait to give it to every teacher and administrator I know."
--Julianna Miner, author of Raising a Screensmart Kid,
blogger at Rants From Mommyland "Stephanie's writing is smart,
witty, well-informed, brave and compassionate."
--Janelle Hanchett, author of I'm Just Happy to Be Here
"Stephanie Jankowski breathes life into situations many of us have
experienced and takes us on her journey through insight and humor.
You owe it to yourself to read this book."
--Tif Mulally, Ph.D. Assistant Professor at Misericordia University
"Jankowski's humor and sense of the absurd show that she knows how
to hold the good and bad without letting the bad make her
bitter. THAT is a gift."
--Nicole Knepper, MA, LCPC, author of Moms Who Drink and
Swear "Whether you need a laugh, a dose of inspiration, or just
comfort in the fact that another teacher 'gets it, '
Schooled is a wonderful teacher read."
--Hannah Hudson, WeAreTeachers Editorial Director "Jankowski
harnesses humor and humility in this delightfully honest
compilation of essays. Long known as the shapers of the future and
of our children, Jankowski proves that teachers also possess as
much wit as they do wisdom."
--Elly Lonon, author of Amongst the Liberal Elite "Forget
apples or another coffee mug, Stephanie Jankowski's hilarious,
honest and heartwarming Schooled makes the perfect teacher
appreciation gift."
--Ann Imig, founder of Listen to Your Mother
