I teach in a high-need community with students hungry for higher education in the arts. The high school where I teach is a public performing arts school. My students study drama every day for four years. Many students dream of going on to an arts college or university. Because they have limited resources due to their family's income and the budgetary restraints of the school, my students and I have difficulty competing for opportunities and resources, fully accessible to students in schools with an adequate financial profile.
