I teach all subjects to 24 students in an all day kindergarten. This is a high need school. Our school is composed of 87% of students receiving free or reduced lunch. This means, those students are living at or below the poverty line. My students come from varying home dynamics, some raised by both parents, single parent, grand parents, etc. My students live in houses, apartments, trailers, or motels. Some of my students start school with outside challenges, but you'd never know it. They are the most happy, hard-working 4 and 5 year olds you could ever meet.
