On a recent afternoon in June, a line of kids between the ages of 5 and 13 snaked back from the door at the edge of classroom at St. Anthony’s Catholic School in East Oakland, California. Some jumped up and down, others chattered with their classmates. They were clearly in a playful mood. At the front of the line, a teacher addressed a 10-year-old boy, with a backpack slung over his shoulder, waiting to exit.
