Here, Our Open Hearts: A Student Anthology

A diverse group of high school students come together to share their open hearts with the world through writing short, personal narratives. These teens discuss a wide range of life's important issues, such as young love, surviving a new country, losing a family member, and many more. Consisting of mostly minority students, this group battles through and conquers some of life's more challenging obstacles hidden in the everyday living of California's valley of Kern County. Writing from the classroom of their English teacher, Mr. Tripp, these Golden Valley High School students truly represent their school through their honest and sincere golden writing.
