Résumé

Society primarily views education as a way to teach students skills and knowledge that they will draw upon as they move into their adult lives. However, schools do more than educate students - they also place students into categories, such as kindergartner, English language learner, and honor roll student. But do these categories have larger consequences than simply sorting students into classrooms ? In Schooled and Sorted Thurston Domina, Andrew M.
Penner, and Emily K. Penner explore how educational categories reify and reinforce powerful existing social categories - including race, ethnicity, and class—and ultimately reproduce social and economic inequality in broader society.
