My students are amazing little people! They are in grades 3-5 in a school that is the 2nd lowest performing school in our NC district. That does not stop them from trying hard to do the best they can. The majority of them are on free lunch and come from low poverty areas near the school. Many of them come from homes where struggling adults are battling loss of jobs, addictions, etc. Many of them go to bed at all hours of the night, some of them with no power or food until they arrive the next morning to receive their free breakfast. All of this would make most of us want to just stay in bed. These kids come to school and try to put their home lives aside so they can become more than where they are from. All of the kids that I work with are below grade level and are hoovering at the line between failure and success. They were chosen to be in these groups because we feel that with some small group help we may be able to push them over to success.
