I teach 800+ students in a Title I public school in an Texas urban setting. I am a technology teacher at a STEM Academy and see my students in weekly rotation. Our class topics include coding, robotics, engineering, animation and video production - just to name a few. Students in our school face many challenges, chief among them-poverty. Many of my students know firsthand the pain of hunger, fear, loss, and chaos. They are raised in families with two parents, step parents, foster parents, single parents, incarcerated parents, and grandparents. They go home to houses, apartments, and sometimes motel rooms. School is often the only safe and structured place they can go. More than 95 percent of my students are also minorities with 80 percent or more with English as a second language. Even with so many challenges, the students still come to school each day with a smile and a hug, eager to have a great day!
