Our school is a Title I school in a low economic area. All of my students receive free lunch and breakfast and for some of them those are the only 2 meals they receive in a day. Although they do have many needs, they are always eager to learn which is why I love teaching them. I am always determined to help them grow academically, and to teach them skills that they will use throughout their futures. Letting them use their creativity and giving them opportunities to be artistic in all subjects will allow them to be able to express themselves and to be engaged while learning.
