THIS is a story about a boy called Sparky. For Sparky, school was all but impossible. He failed every subject in the eighth grade. He got a zero in physics. It made him the worst physics student in the school’s history. He didn’t do much better in sports. He made the school golf team, but lost the only important match of the season.

He didn’t have friends, either. Other kids didn’t care about him. If a classmate said “hello” to Sparky outside of school, he would feel very surprised. There’s no way to tell how he might have done at dating(约会). Sparky never once asked a girl to go out in high school. He was too afraid of being turned down.

Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself.She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present, too.It was his mother’s perfume(香水)

Teddy said ,“Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.”After the children left , she cried for at least an hour.On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math.Instead, she began to teach children.

Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy.The boy’s mind seemed to come alive.The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved.By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.

The story doesn’t end there.On his wedding day, Dr.Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear ,“Thank you, Mrs.Thompson, for believing in me.You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”

Mrs.Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back ,“ Teddy, you have it all wrong.You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference.I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”

Now, there is a new-type school in New York, which has no everyday lessons, no class teachers and even no school buildings. It is called “City-as-School”. The name just means the city itself is the place where students learn their lessons. They are from the age of 15 to 18. The students choose areas of work which interest them. Then they help to do that work. One girl spends her week in a government office helping the public with problems like housing. Then she goes to help in a theatre for a day and she spends a week for first-year courses at college.

Well, students have to pass Maths and science exams before they enter the “school”. These subjects are not easy to provide in“City-as-School”. Teachers watch the progress of the students. The success rate (比率) is high. 80% of the students go to college after the “City-as-School”.

The students like the duty of their work. They have the sense of purpose. They know a lot about different kinds of work in the city. One of the students, Lizette Martinez, writes “I want to say that I do not know where I would be right now if I had never become part of City-as-School. Leaving my regular high school and going to City-as-School was the best decision I have ever made. The way the school works to get you to go out there and learn different fields instead of sitting in a classroom is wonderful. For all those who are in between school and dropping out, go to CAS and it will change your life forever.”

City-as-School High School is the nation’s leading (引导) external (外部地) learning or experiential (来自经验的) learning model for high school students.
