After breakfast in the cafeteria (98% of my students participate in the free/reduced lunch program) our students meet in the gymnasium while their teachers prepare their classrooms. So our students begin each day in my "classroom." It's important that my students feel welcomed and comfortable in the gym so they can start each day on the "right foot." My students are wonderful children and they are eager to learn. The majority them reside in low-income neighborhoods, but that is no indication of what they are capable of. In the past our campus had a negative reputation. Unfortunately, because of what others were saying and doing, our students felt they could not learn or behave. But our students and staff have worked hard to change the image of our school. I truly believe the sky is the limit for our kids. Our students and parents now know how special they are to us and we want to continue this positive growth.
