My scholars are 8th grade boys attending public school. They are critical thinkers with great questions and strong opinions. They are growing up in a very complicated, fast-paced world. They come to school nearly every day of the year and stay for extended day programming. They are extremely loyal to one another and to their teachers. As their educators, we set out to develop and encourage in them resilience, confidence, effort, leadership and commitment to excellence. We are a Title 9 school in a low-performing district in NYC. Many of our scholars read below grade level and have low confidence in their reading and writing skills. However, they demonstrate a depth of curiosity and critical thinking that is undervalued in our society. We make tremendous effort to select high quality texts and design rich curriculum that celebrate the cultural riches and heritage of our scholars' communities. We want our scholars to see themselves reflected in that legacy.
