I am a 5th grade teacher in Washington Heights. My students come from a variety of backgrounds. Many of them come to school knowing that they will have at least two meals today, the free breakfast and lunch offered at my school. I know it is my job, if only for seven hours, to make them feel smart, empowered, and hopeful. They don't have the easiest lives, but they are working hard and making the best of it. As their teacher, it is my job to give them every advantage, experience, and learning opportunity I can. It isn't easy! Don't get me wrong, it is a tough job, but I absolutely love it!
