Picture in your mind a class of 24 second grade students properly dressed in their red and black school uniforms sitting eagerly, bright eyed and ready to learn. Belly's are full from the school provided breakfast, hands and faces washed at the classroom sink. Teeth often brushed at the hands of the nurse. Is this picture different then you can remember as an elementary student? Maybe so, but it a hard reality for my students. Intelligent, hard working, determined and fun can be used to describe my students. As well as economically challenged, struggling, and tired. My favorite word describing my class is READERS! They love to read!! Our school services a low economic, diverse population where teachers are often teaching the parents as well as the students. Families rely on the school system for support and rarely know how to support their children's education or their child's teachers. As dark as their home lives can get, they shine in the classroom displaying a love of learning.
