The World We Created at Hamilton High

The World We Created at Hamilton High is a 1988 non-fiction book by Gerald Grant, published by Harvard University Press.

The book documents the educational history of a high school in the Northeastern United States that the work refers to as "Hamilton High School"; the book does not disclose the actual name of the school.[1] The school documented is actually Nottingham High School in Syracuse, New York.[2][3]

Grant argued in favor of school autonomy.[4]
