With Love and Prayers: A Headmaster Speaks to the Next Generation Jarvis F. WashingtonPaperback
HERE, AT LAST is a book of uncommon common sense for young people by someone who has worked with them for thirty-five years. F. Jarvis's approach is anecdotal. Washington Jarvis is one of the nation's most eminent educators, now in his twenty-eight year as headmaster of Boston's Roxbury Latin School, the oldest school in continuous operation in North America.
They are gripped by the story of how real people cope with real situations. If it is true that a picture is worth a thousand words, it is ten times as true when you are speaking to young teenagers. They are interested when you share with them the concrete realities of your own life and experience, and they are almost always willing to listen to adults who actually believe in something, who actually stand for something.
Jarvis's addresses, reprinted from his school's publications, have enjoyed something of a cult underground
