Michael, What Page Are We On? is an episodic, comical story of a history lover, Jimmy, who, at the age of forty, naively plunges into a second career as a Catholic School teacher. His unrealistic expectation of classroom life is based on memories of his own schoolboy days decades before, leaving him shocked to see that behavior and discipline in schools have suffered a sea change, and not for the better. So, he is forced to develop an eclectic strategy of teaching and coping skills to deal with continuous unforeseen situations.

As a detached witness to scandals and sometimes at odds with holier-than-thou administrators, Jimmy’s career carries him through a series of Catholic schools in locations as diverse as a dreary ghetto in the Northeast to a sun splashed enclave of the rich and famous on the east coast of Florida. Whenever his teaching days seem over forever, he manages, helped by strange coincidences, to get hired at another location. Can guardian angels really exist?

This book is a work of fiction. Although its form is that of an autobiography, it is not one. Any names, characters, places, events, and incidents are products of the author’s imagination or are used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual events or to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. The opinions expressed are those of the characters and not the author. There is no intent to harm any real person of institution.
