The poverty rate at my school has risen from 64% to 68% free and reduced lunch in just one year. Our students are resilient, brave, and smart. Yet, many of their families struggle to provide their children the stability they need to thrive in a 21st century learning environment. Our students have the capacity to not only achieve, but excel. I am often humbled when I see one of our little ones come in each day with a huge toothy smile and I know that they probably didn't get a full meal the night before, and they didn't get to see their mom because she came home from work after bedtime. The children at our school have a desire to learn, but we have to work hard at supporting their academic and personal/social needs each day.
