On paper, our school is located in Compton, California. Compton is connected with South Los Angeles and the North side of Long Beach, considered one of the roughest areas in the country. My students come with many challenges such as low socioeconomic backgrounds and single family households. In reality, however, my students are extremely bright with a perspective on life that not many students in the country have. Despite the challenges they face at home and outside the school gates, my students excel academically, enjoy math and science, and are very articulate. Given the chance, provided the tools, and leveling the playing field, these students are able to impact our society and improve our communities. Like any middle school students, they love technology and like attention. My students enjoy creating projects and enjoy presenting those projects in class. Students are more interested in a subject when they can see the relevance and application.
