Support Mrs. Cox's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
My class is comprised of inner city students who are all from poor low-income families located in an area that has a vast amount of vacant homes and abandoned buildings. A great number of my students have been provided with school clothes as well as school supplies this school year by me along with other volunteers from local businesses. My students work extremely hard for me and have made significant gains in both reading and mathematics since the beginning of the school year. Although my students are faced with many hardships, they attend school daily with an open heart and the willingness to work as hard as they can. These second grade students are between the ages of 7 and 8, although many of them act more maturer than the average 7 or 8 year old because they serve as an older brother or sister at home; forcing many of them to have to take on more adult like responsibilities.
