I work at a great school with teachers who are very dedicated to teaching. We are a Title 1 school, so many of our students come from struggling homes. We have some students who get very little support at home and therefore struggle with reading or getting help with homework. Despite the struggles our students might have, we (the teachers) still set high expectations for our students because we know with our guidance and their effort they can reach those high expectations. Our school has once again received an "A" for our school grade, because of our students' hard work and our teachers' dedication to our students. The students take pride in the school they attend and show it in their continuous effort.
