Nice, inspirational book about a group of kids who overcome their backgrounds, their academic standings, and in some cases, themselves, to achieve something intangible yet so worthwhile.

It was very awesome, it had great character developement. In school we had to read it as a class, most of the kids liked it and one of the kids in my class got dubbed as Marcel.

This is a great book for high schoolers, particularly that are lower readers. While it seems the book will be 'nerdy' and 'mathy' it is actually the true story of some troubled teens and how working on an project after school affects their lives. Not everyone gets a happy ending here so be warned. It is great how the student voices come out in the book and their thoughts on what life and school is really like for them. This book is VERY easy to read and has very short chapters which makes it great for low readers.

I read this in 6th grade.
I thought it was enjoyable overall, but it was a little hard to get into.
