The elementary-age students I teach come from low-income families, most of which are minority families. 80% of the students receive free or reduced breakfast and lunch daily. Most students receive no after-school care or enrichment in any educational or arts programs outside of the school day. Funding for enrichment programs such as music and art in the school are being cut each year, and the opportunities for these students to engage in- and learn from-fine arts is becoming more limited. I teach special education students in grades K-5 who have cognitive, physical, and/or behavioral limitations and impairments. In addition to the limitations they face as children of a high-poverty, high-minority community, they also face the daily challenge of being so different from their peers, that they require educational and behavioral services in a separate classroom for either all or part of the school day.
