My students are bright and curious and funny and, for the most part, at risk of either not graduating from high school or not finishing college. If they do attend college, many of them will be the first in their family to do so. They go to a large public high school in one of America's largest cities. Over 90% of our students qualify for free/reduced school lunches, which is another way of saying that their families don't make a lot of money. So, yes, my students face many challenges. But most importantly, they are bright and curious and funny and shy and nervous and excited and disillusioned and empowered and they are named Jose and Latashia and Jonathan and Kenny and Noemi and they are interested in video games and music and cars and movies and, above all, finding out who they are and who they could become.
