Our group of twenty students all from a very diverse background share a classroom and push themselves academically. They work as a community to help each other remain positive and successful. We have worked to build a strong foundation in our classroom of respect, empathy, and growth. The students who are in my classroom are all from a very low poverty area and have had to experience more emotionally and physically stressful situations than most adults. Yet, daily, they put it all aside to learn and expand their academic experiences. Most of my students are from single parent homes, living with relatives, struggle to wear clean clothes, do not speak English as their first language, but smile and get excited to come to school each day. These students deserve more than they will ever receive, they truly are one of a kind, special.
