My students attend a K-8 span school located in Southern California. The 1,100 students who attend our school are latinos who all qualify for free meals. Our school is designated as a Title 1 school due to the highly empoverish area. The majority of our students are first generation Americans and the others are newly arrived immigrants from Mexico and Central America. Most families live in apartments and often live with other families in very small quarters. Due to the limited economic resources at home, students at our school obtain most of their enrichment via field trips or unique events planned by the school or teachers in their classrooms.
