My students are survivors and decision makers. They choose to attend our school, even though there are only 6 teachers and less than 200 students. There is no lunchroom, no nurse, no football field, but we do have the attentive and caring staff they need to point them in the right direction for their individual lives. They are artist, creative, some live with complete families, some are homeless, and some are in group homes, but all of them want more options for their future. They can go straight to college when they graduate from our school, but will they have a well-rounded education? Definitely not as well-rounded as they'd like, but due to the lack of funding, our school suffers from a lack of resources. Our students are quite innovative, and with my help, started a video production club, which then turned into a small class. They create and produce a short film for the morning announcements each day, all on their own, but now, they need your help.
