The Prison School is a disturbing and important book. New York Journal of Books


Simmons has produced a terrific book, one that is beautifully written, engaging, and offers a nice blend of data and literature. . . an important and accessible book that should be read by those concerned about the increasing criminalization of American schools. * Journal of Criminal Justice Education * In closing, The Prison School disrupts what have become common sense understandings of the connection between schools and the criminal justice system by exposing both the push and pull factors that shape the daily experiences of many students of color. . . [the book] pushes the reader to confront and question the state of our schools, creating necessary space in which to imagine a world otherwise. * Crime, Media, Culture * The Prison School is a disturbing and important book. * New York Journal of Books *
