I work at a Title 1 school with economically disadvantaged students and a high English Language learner population. My students cannot afford the basic supplies that they need to be successful. Every year, I spend hundreds of dollars creating the perfect learning environment for my students.
This year I will teach 11th and 12th grade students. Many of these students are FSA retakers who need that extra push of motivation to graduate. These students have overcome so much adversity. They live in an area filled with gangs, drugs and absent parents. These kids deserve to have access to the same tools that other schools have, but unfortunately they don't have the ability.
