It has a lot of places to go too, from fiction set in schools (The Magicians, Harry Potter, etc.) to typical books that would be mandatory reading in school (but we might appreciate more now) to books used in classrooms, either as text books or supporting material, or even just books that are intended to teach us something (like a Mary Roach book.)
Yes, September would be the best month because that is the month kids go back to school in the US. Also, I dislike the idea of adding books read in school. That's not part of the intent of this theme. There is a thread someplace on MR where it gives a lot of recommendations for books that are school themed.

Personally, I really dislike the idea of book read in school because a lot of books read are not good and the thought of reading one of them is not nice.
