At six years old, Zach Bonner began to think differently about what learning looked liked for himself. With parental support, "school" became a blend of learning and serving.

Superficially, the Brooklyn Generation School, here in the Flatbush area, looks a lot like the other six small public high schools that share space in this tall building, the former South Shore High School. What's noticeably different about it, though, is the strength of the relationships among staff members and students.
