One caring adult can change the course of a student's life.

Mya was drowning ... and no one seemed to notice.

Not in the quiet turmoil of her home life. Not in the noise of a busy school day. Not even as her grades slipped and her spark dimmed.

Until one adult did notice.

The Lifeguard is a powerful, true-to-life story set in a fictional school where every adult is committed to one mission: helping students rise, no matter how far they've fallen. At the heart of the story is Mya, a student quietly battling the weight of trauma, poverty, and academic failure. Her story is unique, yet heartbreakingly familiar to educators everywhere.

Through Mya's journey, readers witness the life-changing power of what it means to be a learning lifeguard: a steady, caring presence who refuses to give up on a student in need. You'll see how a team of committed educators comes together to throw lifelines, build trust, and help Maya believe in her future again.

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Damon West calls it "your invitation to dive in," reminding us that ordinary people can make extraordinary impact, just by showing up at the right moment.

This is more than a story ... it's a call to action.

Will you be the lifeguard someone needs?
