Schooled by Gordon Korman
Capricorn Anderson has never watched television; he has never used a school locker, been to a public school of any sort, handled money, or hung out with anyone other than his grandmother, Rain. But when Rain falls out of a tree on their commune and breaks her hip, Capricorn is in for an eye-opening experience - a public middle school!

Capricorn, or "Cap," must now negotiate his way through school halls, student elections, spit balls, practical jokes, and the complicated social strata of 8th grade. Will his 1960s-styled, alternative, 'hippie' upbringing prepare Cap for the real, 21st-century world? Or will he be Schooled?
