Combining a fascinating history of the first U.S. high school for African Americans with an unflinching analysis of urban public-school education today, First Class explores an underrepresented and largely unknown aspect of black history while opening a discussion on what it takes to make a public school successful. In 1870, in the wake of the Civil War, citizens of Washington, DC, opened the Preparatory High School for Colored Youth, the first black public high school in the United States; it would later be renamed Dunbar High and would flourish despite Jim Crow laws and segregation. Dunbar attracted an extraordinary faculty: its early principal was the first black graduate of Harvard, and at a time it had seven teachers with PhDs, a medical doctor, and a lawyer. During the school's first 80 years, these teachers would develop generations of highly educated, successful African Americans, and at its height in the 1940s and '50s, Dunbar High School sent 80 percent of its students to college. Today, as in too many failing urban public schools, the majority of Dunbar students are barely proficient in reading and math. Journalist and author Alison Stewart—whose parents were both Dunbar graduates—tells the story of the school's rise, fall, and possible resurgence as it looks to reopen its new, state-of-the-art campus in the fall of 2013.

The Colburn School in Los Angeles, California, is one of the world's premier music schools. It has four divisions. The Colburn Conservatory of Music offers a bachelor's degree in music performance and a four-year performance diploma. It also offers two graduate-level programs, a master's degree in music performance and an artist diploma for students seeking to broaden their repertory. There is also a less-structured professional studies certificate for those initiating their career. The Colburn Community School of Performing Arts serves students of all ages with classes in music, dance, drama, and early childhood arts education. The Music Academy is dedicated to nurturing and training gifted and talented young musicians under the age of eighteen. The Trudl Zipper Dance Institute supports all dance programs at the Colburn School, including those in the Community School and in the Dance Academy, a pre-professional program for youth desiring a career in dance. Throughout the Colburn School, the emphasis is on performance. The Colburn School bears the name of its benefactor, Richard D. Colburn. This memoir recounts his deep engagement with music, beginning on his seventh birthday, when his mother gave him a violin with a bow and a case, purchased for ten dollars. Colburn played the violin-and the viola-until the age of eighty-nine, but by his teenage years he focused on business, in which he proved to be remarkably talented. Colburn narrates his life with plain-spoken wit and grace. Music was his sustaining passion, and the Colburn School, which was his vision and which he generously endowed, is his gift of gratitude.

The Downing Legacy is the story of a family dedicated to serving God as missionaries in Kenya. Their assignment to run Rift Valley Academy resulted in a multi-generational involvement with the myriad and diverse roles necessary to produce a successful school, and one that has met American accreditation standards, and gained recognition worldwide for quality and uniqueness. Lee Harper Downing, the patriarch of the family, led the way with his gift of teaching Latin and the Bible. He was known for his life of prayer and faithful leadership in Africa Inland Mission. His eldest son, Herbert, served as principal of the school for many years where he used his varied talents for teaching, building, and administration. The younger brother, Kenneth, was asked to fill in for a year while Herbert was on furlough. He found himself filling in for ten years, during which time he taught various classes and generally ran the school. Both men's wives shared in the teaching and responsibilities of RVA which included homemaking for children living in dormitories, cooking, laundry, nursing, and other duties that were gracefully taken on as the need arose. This is the heartwarming story of their love and commitment to their mission.
