It sounds corny, but watching my 2nd grade students play on the playground fills my heart. The sheer joy in their shrieks of laughter is amazing. On the playground they are just kids. They leave behind all their worries which are often too much for 8 year old children. More than 75% of them come from hard working families living in poverty. Many are English Language Learners. Many live with aging grandparents or in unsafe homes. Our school family is a place where these children can be children. They can learn, play, and work together in a risk free environment. Their classroom is a place where they should have all the things that will help them succeed despite their various situations.
