My students are located in Los Angeles, California. They are amazing and creative students who love my humanities class. However, like many students in Los Angeles they are coming into middle schools with many skill gaps. My students do not have the same supports as you and I had when growing up. Many of my students' parents work two jobs, or in the evenings. Moreover, many of the parents do not speak English. This puts our students at a great disadvantage. My students show deficits in vocabulary, reading, and especially writing. It saddens me of the disparity of skills in students across California. I want to make a difference will you?
