My school is located in a rough area of inner city Philadelphia. It has been my home for thirty years now. We are Title One, with all students receiving free breakfast and lunch. My families struggle with basic supplies and needs. The school struggles with restrictive budgets that do not allow for "extras". The children I have love to read, be read to and to sing. I need additional support to help these kids be all they can be. I know their strengths - help me show these to the kids. ------------------
