I have been teaching for many years. I am teaching at a hard to staff school in Brooklyn, New York. It's been a wonderful experience for me and each day I learn so very much. This year I am teaching Kindergarten. The students that I teach come mainly from the Kingsborough Housing Projects. They come from a very ow socio economic background. Many of my students each year are in foster homes, homeless shelters, have a parent incarcerated or live with a grandparent. These children face great adversity daily, however they come to school each day eager to learn with their friends. Our school is a title one school. Over 98% of our student body participates in the free lunch program. Our students work hard to be the best they can be. We are a blue ribbon school presently. We received this award for showing great improvement in our school scores. The students at our school do not always come to school with a healthy breakfast in their stomach. We need to have healthy snacks for them.
