I don't think Among the Hidden would work either.  A group of 3rd children
march on the government and I think they all get killed.

Dystopian is a tough one.  There is so much that is horrible just by the
definition of the genre.  Is this student conservative Christian?  There
might be similar lists for other faiths, as well.  I was able to find a
list of Dystopian Christian novels on Goodreads.
