My Algebra 2 students are juniors and seniors who have not found abundant success in math. But with college looming soon, it is awesome to watch them grow and mature throughout the school year, take risks, work hard and improve with each unit. While I am extremely fortunate to work in a suburban area school in a middle to upper class community, it is often assumed that all of our students have similar resources. Many of my students take a 45 minute bus ride from a nearby large city to attend class or live in nearby apartments. 5 of my students attend a vocational school in the morning and take general credits in the afternoon. My students are racially diverse, representing the heritage of Africa, the Middle East, and North and South America. 25/67 of these students have an IEP with disabilities ranging from Autism, Learning Disabilities, ADHD, and Emotional Disabilities. But they all have dreams they want to achieve and we work together toward those goals.
