God, grades, and graduation

religion's surprising impact on academic success
2022
"'God, Grades, and Graduation (GGG)' offers a revealing and at times surprising account of how teenagers' religious upbringing influences their educational pathways from high school to college. 'GGG' introduces readers to a childrearing logic that cuts across social class groups and accounts for Americans' deep relationship with God: religious restraint. This book takes us inside the lives of these teenagers to discover why they achieve higher grades than their peers, why they are more likely to graduate from college, and why boys from lower middle-class families particularly benefit from religious restraint. But readers also learn how for middle-upper class kids--and for girls especially--religious restraint recalibrates their academic ambitions after graduation, leading them to question the value of attending a selective college despite their stellar grades in high school"--Provided by publisher.
