The majority of our students live in low-income or multifamily apartments. We are in an impoverished community with a 25-year history of crime and gang-related violence. Our school is classified as a Title 1 school with 75% of the students identified as at-risk and 72% of students come from economically disadvantaged homes. Many families exist at the survival level according to Marlow's Hierarchy of Needs. The unemployment rate in the area hovers around 9.5% but many of those who are employed work blue-collar jobs or perform manual labor. In 2005 our district grew to include several thousand students displaced by Hurricane Katrina; many of these students and their families chose to stay. Further, we are home to many humanitarian and political refugees from countries with natural disasters like Haiti and Pakistan and from war-torn countries like Burma, Sudan and Somalia. As a result there are more than 80 languages spoken within our district boundaries.
