Our school serves a diverse, low-income community with a rich cultural history. The community is a mix of Puerto Rican, Dominican, Mexican, West African, Middle Eastern, and African American families. My school is the only public middle school for the arts in our district, so many of our students come to our school with a particular passion for drawing, singing, dancing, or music, looking for a place to develop their talent. We struggle with poverty and violence, but try to make our classrooms sanctuaries for learning. Many of my students are struggling readers, so much of my work as a language arts teacher is finding books that they will love and feel confident reading.
