I teach at a high poverty school where over 90% of our students receive free and reduced-price lunches. Over 30% of my students come to school with English not being their first language. Even though my first-grade students have many obstacles that make learning more difficult, I always have high expectations that they will grow and learn.
Because of high poverty, my students have limited access to technology at home. They often lack even the most basic necessities such as books and school supplies. This makes them even more excited about the opportunities they receive while at school.
