I am a teacher in a program, which is a school within a school that works with at-risk youth. Although my students are very bright, engaging and energetic, the majority of my students have a history of under performing in school. Our goal is to turn our students educational and emotional lives around. I hope to change our students'™ high school experience; from failing grades and poor attendance into successful students with aspirations of college.
