My school is an urban school where 50% of students qualify for reduced lunch. We have about 60% African-American, 30% Caucasians and 10% others. Many of my students have to work jobs after school to pay bills. Parents of many of them have not received college education. They do not have enough time to spend with their kids as they are busy with multiple jobs. So my students look upto teachers like us for social, emotional and moral support. We at our school believe in providing them with the best of tools to help them succeed in their lives.
