My students live in an urban, high-crime, low-income area. Our school is performing below proficiency according to state test scores. Many of my students are from single-parent households. Most of them have no access to technology outside of school. Even through all of these obstacles, my students are hard-working and improve every day. My students witness horrific events daily that plague their environment. Many of my students want to do better for themselves and understand that a good education can help them escape to a better place. Unfortunately, our district does not have funds available to give these children what they deserve. My students love learning and realize that they are lacking the necessary resources to enhance their learning and to make it more engaging. They should be entitled to the same resources as the more affluent communities that surround us.
