My scholars want and have the capabilities to learn. However, because of their economics disadvantage there is a huge limit. Hurricane Harvey was devastating to us here in Houston, Texas. However, I am instilling in my scholars "what doesn't break us only makes us stronger". Our school didn't receive much structural damage , but the last few weeks have taken its toll on my scholars more from a psychological and emotional stand point. Some are without the day to day necessities, they so desperately need.. due to the financial strain on their family being displaced from their homes. So, that's why I want my scholars to come to school feeling like this is their safe haven (no worries) and focusing on learning with a growth mindset. I feel with the supplies requested I will be on the road to success in creating that safe place.
