My students are from middle to low income homes. Many are 1st generation Americans who never spoke a word of English until they entered school. Many of my students are also inter-district transfer students from an inner city in Missouri. Our school will cost almost as much to fix everything that needs to be fixed as it would to build an entirely new school. These students are amazing once they become inspired to learn about the fascinating topics of genetics and adapting to survive. They are very inquisitive and want to learn more to understand why certain traits-once inherited-allow different animals to survive in our ever-changing world.
