Description

The Bus Kids offers a compelling and uniquely detailed examination of the experiences of kindergarten students in California participating in a voluntary school desegregation program.

Ira Lit focuses on the day-to-day school life of a group of minority children bussed from their poor-performing home school district to an affluent neighboring district with high-performing schools.

Through these kindergarteners’ experiences, the book sensitively illuminates the processes of school transition, socialization, and adaptation, and addresses an array of important issues relating to American education.  Lit acutely observes these “bus kids” and the quality of their social, emotional, cultural, and academic experiences.

He presents a moving picture of the complexity of challenges, often unrecognized by teachers and parents, each young student confronted every day.
