I teach kindergarten in a low-income school in Compton California, where 95% of the students are English Language Learners. This community is a high-need community with lots of homelessness. The students in our school all qualify for reduced lunch, and monthly donations to selected students for school uniforms and shoes. Our community is struggling with many economic issues and most families can barely make ends meet.. Many parents have two or three jobs and have little time to spend on extra curricular time with their children. Some children are dealing with issues that many adults in more affluent cities have never dealt with in their lifetime... I love working with the children in this city.. it is a place where I feel the students will appreciate the love and dedication I put forth to make them well rounded individuals.
