Abstract

"School Dreams: The Runaway Class" describes the fears of teachers, from elementary/middle to high school, especially the loss of control of their students. In this dream piece, a class breaks away from "the cage" and escapes to the "wild blue yonder" for peace as the teacher sits "frozen" and "bewildered," eventually making the leap as well to search for the students--and himself.
