James Martin Middle School is a Title 1 school that teaches students in grades 6-8. We teach Around 1,000 students each year. Our demographics are over 60% African American students and approximately 25% Hispanic students. Over 99% of our students are on free and reduced lunches and economically challenged in other ways at home. Based on test scores, we are a low performing middle school. Many of my students see math as boring and/or scary and even though we tell them every way we can think of that math matters, many cannot see a real connection to their lives. I am on a mission to change their beliefs!
