The die-hard local skateboarders of Franklin Skateparka group of working-class, Latino and white young men in the rural Midwestare typically classified by schools and society as struggling, at-risk, failing, and in crisis. But at the skatepark, they thrive and succeed, not only by landing tricks but also by finding meaning and purpose in their lives. In Dropping In, Robert Petrone draws from multiple years of ethnographic research to bring readers into this rich environment, exploring how and why these young men engage more with skateboarding and its related cultural communities than with school. For them, it is in these alternative communities and spaces that they meet their intellectual, literate, and learning needs; cultivate meaningful and supportive relationships; and develop a larger understanding of their place in the world. By looking at what these skateboarders can teach us about what is right and working in their lives, Petrone asks educators and others committed to youth development to rethink schooling structures and practices to provide equitable education for all students.
