RV is a good kid, starting his freshman year at the demanding Boston Latin School.
Though his genes didn't give him a lot of good things, they did give him a decent brain.
So he's doing his best to keep up in high school, despite all the additional pressures he's facing: His immigrant parents, who don't want him to forget his roots and insist on other rules.
Some tough kids at school who bully teachers as well as students.
His puny muscles.
His mean gym teacher.
The Guy Upstairs who doesn't answ.
