The book begins with Lamott's first day of teaching at a high school in Marin County, California. She is immediately overwhelmed by the challenges of the job: the students are unruly, the curriculum is outdated, and the administration is unsupportive. But Lamott is determined to make a difference in her students' lives, and she gradually begins to find her footing.

As the year progresses, Lamott develops close relationships with her students. She learns about their hopes and dreams, their fears and insecurities. She also witnesses their struggles with poverty, violence, and addiction. Lamott's own struggles with addiction give her a unique perspective on her students' lives, and she is able to offer them compassion and understanding.

In addition to her work with her students, Lamott also writes about her own personal struggles. She writes about her addiction to alcohol and drugs, her failed relationships, and her search for meaning in her life. Lamott's writing is honest and unflinching, and she does not shy away from the darkest moments of her life.

Despite the challenges she faces, Lamott never gives up on her students. She believes in their potential, and she is determined to help them succeed. She creates a safe and supportive environment in her classroom, and she encourages her students to be themselves. Lamott's students respond to her love and support, and they achieve great things in her class.

Come September is a powerful and moving memoir about the challenges and rewards of teaching. Lamott's writing is honest, insightful, and inspiring. She offers a unique perspective on the lives of high school students, and she shows how teachers can make a real difference in their lives.
