I am a fifth grade teacher at a charter school in Compton, CA. I work with students who come from varying home lives; some that are not the most stable. For some of these students, school is the safest place for them. Despite their harsh surroundings, my students come to school each day eager to learn and excited for the chance at a quality education. As some of them have come to my school and classroom with very little educational proficiency, they are in need of basic reading and writing skills. My students are not defined by their environment, but rather by the opportunities that are provided for them. For this reason, I invest my time and effort into them, and show them how much I believe in them. I also do my best to make them understand that education is the key to achieving their dreams and making a difference.
