Philip K. Dick is a well known science fiction author. Some of his best
known works are "Minority Report", "A Scanner Darkly", and "Do Androids
Dream of Electric Sheep" which was the basis for the movie "Bladerunner", an
early vehicle for Harrison Ford. I think much of his work would be suitable
for high school students.

"Teachers aren't paid to love children. Loving children is what teachers do
for extra credit. It's not the main assignment - but it's more important
than the main assignment. Extra credit is done of your own free will. Work
and love given of your own free will is always more joyous, better quality
stuff." Sahara Special, by Esme Codell.
