Jody Corbett at Scholastic has acquired Class Dismissed, a middle-grade novel by Allan Woodrow. When their fifth grade teacher quits and the students of classroom 507 are the only ones who know, they assume it will be one big holiday. But they soon learn that life without a teacher isn't easy, and keeping the secret is more work than they imagined.
Publication is set for fall 2015; Joanna Volpe at New Leaf Literary & Media negotiated the deal for world rights.
