I am a Geometry and African American History teacher at a Tier 1 Public Charter School in SE Washington, DC. On any day, the scholars see drugs, homelessness, mental illness, and violence on a typical walk from the train to the school, or even in their homes, yet in spite of their shortcomings and obstacles, they continue to push towards excellence. Watching them blossom into "Community Advocates" that encourage and uplift one another has been a blessing. Everyone is a product of their environment, either good or bad; These scholars have chosen to be positive products of one of the toughest environments of Washington, DC. Everyday I am in awe by their tenacity to succeed as well as their selflessness to help and encourage their fellow scholars. In class we use an African Proverb that states: If you want to go fast, go alone... If you want to go far, go with others. These scholars are going the distance!
