My school is a magnet school in a large city in Texas. We attract students from all over the city, who must apply for admittance. Students are selected via a lottery system and often travel up to an hour each way on the bus to reach our school. Students attending the school are grateful, high-achieving, and motivated to learn. Having said that, many come from low socio-economic backgrounds and homes where their parents are not college graduates. The unique thing about our campus is that it is extremely diverse and represents a cross-section of demographics that does not exist in any neighborhood school. The culture of the school is truly unique because of this diversity and because of that, students are more comfortable being themselves. My students excitable and open-minded- ready to tackle even the most challenging concepts. In fact, matching their energy is sometimes challenging for me! Their enthusiasm is infectious, though, and I always strive to provide them with the best.
