My school is a middle school in Arkansas that has a population of approximately 1,000 sixth and seventh graders. Our school district's demographics have changed rapidly over the last 17 years and continues to do so this year. As a result, our school now has 53% of our students enrolled in the free and reduced lunch program. Our population is becoming more and more diverse, also. Thirty-six percent of our students are Hispanic, Asian, or Pacific Islander. These changes have created a greater need to use a variety of teaching strategies in order to meet the needs of all students. Our school is embracing this challenge with professional development that has helped us learn to use new and innovative strategies. We are being encouraged to use more hands-on activities in order to help our students gain greater understanding of key concepts.
