My students live in one of the most distressed communities in the Kansas City area. At our high school, 92% of students live with families with incomes below the federal poverty level. Many of the families are single-parent households where the parent is working two or even three jobs. Students move with their families many times throughout their school careers. Even with these challenges, students work hard to achieve their full potential in all their course work. They are consistent in doing their work in each class and do their homework each night. They are inquisitive about science concepts and love to explore each new idea. They have a great desire to know about the world around them, exploring changes and why those changes are happening. Our staff is supportive of all of our students, working together collaboratively to make sure that we are meeting the needs of our students. We want to make sure that we are educating the whole child and routinely put in extra hours to do so.
